Roasted Herb Chicken (Bondage Chicken) image

I modified slightly the recipe from Bill Granger's Bills Food. I love the recipe as it is pretty simple to make and the actual hands-on preparation work is perhaps just 10 - 15 mins. I get raves where ever I serve the chicken. I hope you will like it. I sometimes serve it with Roasted Butternut Squash. My friend saw the legs tied with kitchen twine and screamed "Bondage Chicken!!". This is part of my low-carbo recipes file.

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 oven ready chicken (About 1 - 1.5 kg)
1 tablespoon dried rosemary
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon crushed black pepper (You may adjust the amounts to your taste, eg less salt.)
1 lemon, washed and pricked all over with fork

Steps:

  • Rub chicken with seasoning.
  • Prick chicken all over with fork.
  • Stuff lemon in cavity and secure legs with kitchen string.
  • Refrigerate for about 3-4 hours.
  • Longer the better.
  • Take out of fridge and roast breast-side up in a 220 degree centigrade oven.
  • For fan ovens, it's 200 degrees.
  • Roast for about 45- 1 hour, depending on size and doneness required, eg for crispier skin, a longer time.
  • For a fan oven, you may want to turn the chicken 180 degrees (I do that).
  • You may also wish to subtitute Rosemary with Oregano.
