Basic Roast Chicken on a Wintry Night

There's nothing quite like the aroma of a chicken roasting in the oven! 

Here's our can't fail method for a savory chicken.  Best of all, your oven does all the work!


Preheat oven to 375F.


1. Cut a 4 lb chicken into 8 pieces.


2. Put into roasting pan, and sprinkle liberally with herbes de Provence, 


3. Drizzle extra virgin olive oil over all.


4. Add a tad French salt (we use fleur de sel) and freshly ground pepper melange, some crushed fresh garlic cloves and a few tablespoons butter cut into small bits. 


5. Roast at 375F for 90 mins, basting half way through. 


Serve with your favorite smashed potatoes and haricots vert.

A made for all seasons dinner, not just for a wintry night. Use any leftovers for your chicken pot pie!
