Roasted Lemon Chicken

You will need

• a chicken.... obviously :-)
• 4 cloves of garlic
• a bunch of fresh thyme
• a bunch of fresh sage
• half a lemon
• 1 tablespoon of salt and pepper
•  a good glug of olive oil

Preheat your oven to 200.
Pat dry the chicken with some kitchen paper, this will absorb the moisture and will help the chicken crisp up nicely in the oven.
Season the chicken inside and outside!
Stuff the cavity of the chicken with 3 garlic cloves, sage ,thyme and half a lemon.
 Drizzle a good glug of olive oil on the chicken.
For the first 15 minutes of cooking leave the oven at 200, but then turn down to 180.
Depending on the size of your chicken, cooking time will vary but my chicken was cooked perfectly in 1 hour and roughly around 15 minutes. You should see clear juices running clear from the chicken. To test this simply insert a knife into between the thigh and the end of the breast, and if you see any pink or red juices , put back into the oven.
Baste your chicken with the juices in the pan whilst cooking, this will ensure moisture in the chicken, and especially as breast meat can be quite dry.
When your chicken is cooked , simply rest for a few minutes. Serve hot and Enjoy!
