This awesome recipe for Roast Chicken was shown on a Master Chef episode by Gary Mehigan…he made it look so simple and so easy,I just had to try it out ! True to what he said,it was super easy and absolutely yummilicious…a perfect Roast Chicken…I have added and omitted certain things based on availability but I know ,it would grace my table frequently in the years to come ! I have kept this blog vegetarian for the most part,but a dish like this needs to be shared and I do hope it gives you and your family the pleasure it gave me and mine 🙂 Gary used a whole dressed chicken,I went with drumsticks and breast pieces,I suggest either using a whole chicken or only drumsticks !
