Easy chicken recipe

[Ja. Jewel]

This is an easy & almost effortless chicken dish that I fixed last night, since I have a wicked cold & didn't feel like doing much....quick & easy!

1 whole chicken...wash with lemon and leave it in the juice. Add a generous amount of olive oil, fresh or dried rosemary,garlic (several smashed cloves) salt & pepper....rub the chicken with the seasoning & put into a baking dish, along with all the juices.

Cover with foil & bake at 375 for about 1/2 hr., remove foil and reduce heat to 350, then bake till nice & brown & tender.

Remove chicken from baking dish & add a little flour to pan drippings to make a luscious gravy with a lemony touch.

I served it with baked potatoes but would also be nice with rice or pasta.

BOAL!!!

Thanks for clarifying. But still cloves might be alright...I like my chicken to have strong flavor. Sometimes I go overborad with the rosemary.

I don't think you can go overboard with any herbs as long as they are fresh you can use quite a bit and they will not overpower....if they are dried, you have to use a likkle restraint. Somehow, I don't think cloves would mix well with rosemary....

Cloves do sound interesting with chicken though
