Whole Roasted Herb Chicken
Whole Roasted Herb Chicken, it’s a classic dish for a reason. This amazing dish is a crowd pleaser and actually way easier to make than you would think. Many people think that making a Whole Roasted Herb Chicken is too difficult and instead grab a rotisserie chicken or chicken breasts at the grocery store. While this takes time to cook in the oven, the prep work is actually pretty simple. Phillip and I like to think of this the dish to make for company because we can get the Whole Roasted Herb Chicken in the oven and than have time for making the side dishes and setting a table.
When we first were on a rampage to make a great Whole Roasted Herb Chicken we tried so many combinations of herbs and oil or butter. Each time we made it we liked it but never took a bite and got that “Wow” reaction we are always aiming for. The butter was delicious of course but we couldn’t get over how much butter was going into the recipe. We kept telling ourselves that a lot the of butter burns off and drips into the roasting pan anyway but does it really? Finally in frustration we kind of combined all of the different herbs we have been messing with for this recipe and finally got our “Wow” reaction.
Since then, this Whole Roasted Herb Chicken has been on rotation in our house! We will make this on a Sunday for dinner and enjoy the the rest of the chicken with out lunches all week long. It allows us to have healthy options on hand during the week when we are hungry but don’t feel like making lunch. Toss the chicken into a wrap, salad, or sandwich and enjoy! Quick, easy, and most importantly healthy!
