Roast Chicken

Simple yet delicious. A roast chicken should be plump and juicy.

Ingredients:

1 free range whole chicken
1 fresh lemon or preserved lemon slices
Butter

Method:

1. Rinse the inside of the chicken
2. Place the lemon inside the chicken cavity
   
3. Push slices of butter between the skin and the breast meat of the chicken - don't be too shy. Then rub a bit more butter over the skin of the chicken.
4. Cook in an oven or weber according to size and/or directions for your appliance.
5. To check if chicken is cooked: juices will run clear at the leg joint
