Quick Garlic Roast Chicken With Rosemary & Lemon image

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.
