I'm going to go ahead and throw out an apology for the lack of posting. I'm on a critical care rotation and Jake is doing cardiology. They're both very demanding. I leave the house around 6:30am and I usually don't get home til about 10pm. Jake's schedule is very similar. There isn't much cooking going on these days. Look for a return to life at the end of this month when I get a break.

Roast Chicken [JG]

History:
Clark made a roast chicken. I wanted to as well. Mine is a bit more crazy... I love the variation of taste you can experience when carving. I also made muffins to take to work.

Menu:
Roast Chicken
Salad
Chia Muffins
Blueberry Muffins

Chicken:
Clean, wash, dry. Let sit at RT for ~1 hours... [this was a five pound chicken]. Preheat oven to 425. Salt and pepper the inside. Wheel two lemons. Stuff them in the chicken with rosemary and thyme. Take 1/2-1 stick of butter. Cut holes in the skin and stuff with the butter and/or garlic cloves. Season chicken all over with s/p, and a little rosemary and thyme. Roast for about 1 hour. REST at RT for ~20 minutes.

Salad:
Lettuce. Cherry Tomato. Red Pepper. Onion. Olives. Dressing is olive oil, balsamic vinegar, hint of mustard, basil, oregano, s/p. Whisk.

No picture... I always forget.

Enjoy.
