LEMON-ROASTED CHICKEN
I heard about this "engagement chicken" on the radio, and searched it out online and read how a few different people did it. Here is my variation on it - guaranteed to result in super moist lemon-roasted chicken! And yes - I did get proposed to within 3 months of making it! Looks super pretty and tastes amazing! I usually pair the chicken with a lasagna or a vegetable medley.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Rinse chicken thoroughly with cold water, empty the cavity, and pat chicken dry with paper towels.
- Place chicken, breast-side down, into a roasting pan. Squeeze juice from 1 1/2 lemons over chicken.
- Mix salt and pepper together in a small bowl and spread mixture all over chicken using your hands.
- Roll 2 lemons on the countertop to soften them a bit. Puncture several times with a fork and cram into the cavity of the chicken.
- Place roasting pan in the preheated oven and lower temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Pull out chicken and turn over using wooden spoons or tongs. Return to the oven and continue to bake until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear when the thigh is pricked with a fork, about 1 hour and 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Let chicken rest for 10 minutes before serving. Cut remaining lemon into slices. Transfer chicken to a serving dish and garnish with lemon slices and fresh rosemary. Pour juices from the roasting pan over the chicken to make it super juicy.

THE BEST ROASTED LEMON CHICKEN
This easy to prepare recipe was found in a Cook's Illustrated Magazine. It takes alittle time, but well worth it. I left out the final steps because it wasn't needed for this juicy & best tasting roasted chicken that I have ever come across. I think the secret of the juicyness is that you brine the chicken first. So this is a must for this recipe.

Steps:
- In a large bowl (enough to hold chicken plus two quarts water) disolve salt in water. Add chicken and submerge, covering with lid. I put a small domed lid over chicken before covering so that the whole chicken is under water. Refrigerate for 1 hour. After one hour remove chicken and pat dry with paper towel. Set aside and prepare rack.
- Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position; heat oven to 375 degrees. Spray V-rack (can use another rack, but chicken must be above liquid, at least 2") with cooking spray and set in flameproof roasting pan or lasagna pan.
- Cut lemons lengthwise into quarters. Rub garlic in the cavity of the chicken. Add lemons, fit as many as you can without over stuffing. Thread long wooden or metal skewers through flaps to close cavity. Brush breast side up with butter and season GENEROUSLY with pepper. Then do other side. Place chicken breast side down in V-rack and roast chicken for another 40 minutes.
- Remove roasting pan & chicken from oven and increase temperature to 450 degrees. Using 2 large wads of paper towels turn chicken over to breast side up. Add chicken broth to pan, place chicken back in oven and roast for another 35-40 minutes or until thermometer registers 165 to 170 degrees.
- Once chicken has finished, "remove lemons", and let sit for at least 10 minutes before carving. Then carve and enjoy.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH LEMON
Steps:
- Working carefully to prevent tearing, loosen the skin over as much of the chicken as possible by slipping your hand under it. Rub the chicken flesh lightly with salt, and slide the herbs under the skin. (You should be able to see them through the skin.)
- Place all the lemon in the chicken's cavity, and cover the chicken in plastic wrap or foil. Refrigerate overnight.
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly coat the bottom of a roasting pan with olive oil. Unwrap the chicken and place it breast side up in the pan, surrounded by any vegetables to be roasted. Drizzle the vegetables with oil, turning them to coat well. Roast for 20 minutes, then baste the chicken and vegetables with pan juices. If there are no juices, add 1/4 cup water to the pan, scraping the bottom, and baste.
- Reduce temperature to 325 degrees. Continue basting every 10 to 15 minutes until the juices run clear when the chicken is pierced at the thigh, about 20 minutes to a pound. Roast vegetables until browned and caramelized, removing when cooked to taste.
- Transfer the chicken to a platter and keep warm. Remove the lemon from the cavity and place in the roasting pan, mashing it a bit to release the juices. Place pan on low heat and add the chicken stock, scraping the bottom of the pan. Carve the chicken, adding any juices to the pan. Pour the hot juices into a pitcher or gravy boat. Serve the chicken and vegetables, passing the juices separately.

Steps:
- Thinly slice 1 onion. Strip the needles from the rosemary, and finely chop them; reserve the sprigs. Grate the zest from 1 lemon.
- In a small glass or ceramic bowl, combine sliced onion, chopped rosemary, lemon zest, vinegar, mustard, juice from zested lemon, salt, and pepper. Mix well, and set mixture aside.
- Cut the remaining onion and lemon in half crosswise. Pierce each end with a small, sharp knife. Insert the reserved rosemary sprigs, like skewers, through the holes in the onion and lemon halves.
- Rub the mustard mixture over the outside of the chicken and inside the cavities. Insert a rosemary "skewer"; in the cavity. Put the chicken in a shallow pan, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Prepare a charcoal or gas grill, arranging the coals for indirect cooking. Lightly coat the grilling rack with cooking spray. The coals should be moderately hot.
- Remove the chicken from the shallow pan, and place over the cooler part of the grill. Cover with aluminum foil, and roast until the juices run clear when the thigh is pierced with a fork and an instant-read thermometer registers 180 degrees when inserted into thickest part of thigh (1 hour and 30 minutes to 1 hour and 45 minutes); turn 3 or 4 times during grilling. Add fresh coals to the fire as necessary to maintain a moderate heat. If using a gas grill, adjust the far burner to medium.
- Let the chicken sit 10 minutes. Remove onion and lemon from cavity. Carve, and serve.
