September 19 - Dinner - Lemon Thyme Chicken w/Roasted Potatoes & Carrots

Alright, so this is basically a Roasted Chicken, with a little twist. I'm not going to re-write how to roast a chicken. You can click HERE for that. You just have to combine this with that recipe.

Lemon-thyme Paste for Lemon-Thyme Roasted Chicken
4 garlic cloves
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme, or 2 teaspoons dried
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt, divided 1/4 & 3/4

**needed separately** - 1 lemon cut into 8 slices

Chop the ingredients (3/4 salt) together until a thick paste forms (I use a kitchen chopper for this).

**How to use with the roaster chicken**

Carefully separate the skin from the breast of the chicken. Shove half of the Lemon-thyme paste under the right side of the breast. Carefully massage it all the way to the front of the chicken, making sure it is evenly spread out on the breast. Repeat with the left side. Put lemon slices on top of chicken.

This turned out so well! I also stuffed it with sliced oranges and lemons. The meat was extremely moist and full of flavor. My whole house smelled fantastic!

Enjoy!

Love,

Sarah
