40 Cloves Roast Chicken

• chicken — 4 lb (broiler or fryer)
• Country Roast Chicken Seasoning — 0.25 cup
• garlic — 40 clove (smashed)
• olive oil
• lemon — 1 (thinly sliced)
• thyme — 0.50 tbsp
• rosemary — 1 tbsp
• parsley — 0.50 tbsp (flat-leaf parsley)

Instructions

1. Rub the Country Roast Chicken Seasoning under the skin of the chicken. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
2. Tie the chicken's legs together and wing tips under the back with butcher's twine.
3. Heat garlic in a microwave on low for 6 minutes.
4. In this step, work quickly. If using a bag, place garlic in and stuff it in the cavity. If not, just stuff it in.
5. Coat chicken with olive oil. Place herbs in the bottom of a roasting pan and put lemon slices on top.
6. Put chicken breast side up on top and bake in an oven for 45 minutes at 375°F (190°C).
7. Turn the temperature up to 425°F (220°C) and bake for 45 more minutes or until the internal temperature in both the thigh and breast reaches 165°F (75°C) and the juices run clear.
8. Let rest for 10 minutes and serve.
