Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Season the chicken and place in a snug roasting tin. Drape the bacon around the chicken and roast for 15-20 mins until the bacon is crisp and the chicken just cooked through.
- In a bowl, mix the garlic, lemon juice, yogurt, oil and Parmesan, adding a dash of Worcestershire sauce, if you have any in the cupboard. Discard the outer leaves of the lettuce and tear the rest over a platter, mixing gently with the dressing. Serve with the chicken and crisp bacon, shaving over extra Parmesan, if you like.

Steps:
- First, make the kiev butter. Beat the garlic, parsley and lemon juice into the butter along with some seasoning. Place the butter on a piece of cling film, roll into a log, then chill in the fridge until needed. Make the chicken salt by mixing all the ingredients together in a small bowl, then set aside. The butter and salt can be made up to two days ahead.
- For the chips, cut the potatoes into thick finger-sized wedges and put in a pan of cold water. Bring to the boil and simmer for 5 mins until just cooked. Carefully drain, place on a tray and allow to cool.
- Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. If you have one, sit the chicken on a trivet or wire rack set over a small roasting tin. If you don't have either, then just put your chicken in the roasting tin. Trim two slices of the chilled butter, gently lift the skin away from the breast of the chicken, and push the butter underneath on both sides. Season the chicken all over with a third of the flavoured salt.
- Put the chicken in the oven and roast for 20 mins, then remove and turn it over so that it is breast-side down. Return to the oven for a further 20 mins. Remove it from the oven and turn breast-side-up, then cook for a final 20 mins until crispy and golden.
- Meanwhile, put the oil in a baking tray and place in the bottom of the oven. Toss the cooled chips in a third of the salt, then carefully place in the hot oil, turning them until completely coated. Roast for 45 mins, turning occasionally.
- Remove the chicken from the oven and leave to rest for 5 mins. Cut the chicken into portions and place on a platter with slices of the butter melting over each portion. Serve with the chips and the remaining chicken salt.

QUICK ROAST CHICKEN
This bird gets cooked in a skillet on the floor of the oven, which gives it a burst of heat. The result: a crispy-skinned chicken that cooks in under 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Prep the chicken
- Salting the chicken in advance ensures that the seasoning is evenly distributed throughout the meat. This method results in meat with salt in it rather than on it.
- Put the bird in a large metal bowl, sprinkle the salt evenly all over it, and rub the chicken around the inside of the bowl until all the salt adheres.
- Note: Food geeks like me with a gram scale will find that a 2½-pound chicken, after deboning, weighs 1,134 grams. Depending on your taste for salt, you'll need between 1.1 percent and 1.4 percent of the chicken's weight in salt (12.5 to 15.8 grams).
- Let the salted chicken rest in the fridge for at least 2 hours before cooking; the chicken is good to go for at least 24 hours after salting.
- Dry the chicken and heat the oven
- About ½ hour before roasting the chicken, turn the oven to 475°F and let it heat up (this may take a while). You want it plenty hot in there. Meanwhile, take the chicken from the fridge and pat dry with paper towels. Set aside.
- Cook the chicken
- Oil a large heavy-bottomed skillet; cast iron is my favorite. (If your skillet won't accommodate the whole chicken, split it into 2 halves and use two skillets.) You want a thick coating of oil (more than a slick, less than a puddle). Place the pan over a high heat onthe stovetop until you see the faintest wisp of smoke rising from the oil. Gently-really gently, so the oil doesn't splatter and burn you-lay the chicken in the pan skin side down. Lower the heat to medium-high and cook until the skin turns faintly blond, about 3 minutes.
- Transfer the skillet to the floor of the oven.
- Depending on the size of the bird and whether it is deboned or just butterflied, the total cooking time in the oven will range from 18 to 30 minutes. The chicken is done when the temperature in the thickest part of the thigh registers 155°F to 160°F on an instant-read thermometer.
- When the chicken is done, cut it into manageable pieces, put them on a platter, and serve as is, or with a squeeze or two of lemon.
QUICK GARLIC ROAST CHICKEN WITH ROSEMARY & LEMON
This is a Rachael Ray recipe. It really is very easy and very flavorful. I should note that I didn't use the lemon zest (husband isn't a fan of citrus flavor on meat), I only had dried rosemary, so I just used less,and I placed a quartered onion in the dish. That being said, this was still very good. I served it up with some asparagus and mushroom flavored rice. Everyone ate, even my two year old. If you don't like white meat, try chicken thighs.
