A few weeks ago I made my first roast chicken, all by myself (well, I did have to call my mom for one thing, but still... mostly by myself). It was pretty yummy. I got the recipe from a magazine, which listed a bunch of meals you could make with the leftover chicken. I am a
big fan of leftovers recipes. So I made the lemon-garlic chicken, which called for stuffing the skin of the chicken with a lemon, garlic, butter mixture. The recipe also had you cook potatoes in with the chicken and as I am also a huge potato fan (meat & potatoes, ya know?) I added those as well. Here is the chicken pre-roasting. Notice the cell phone hanging out so I could call my mom and ask where the giblets are located :)
And here is a picture of the end result. We thought it tasted pretty good, although next time we're putting less lemon in the chicken. And my husband thought it was way too good to leave leftovers for another meal. He had the rest of the chicken for lunch the next day, so I guess I'll have to make it again and hide the leftovers if I want to make the other recipes!
In other news, only 39 days until Christmas... Yikes!
Happy Tuesday!
