Roasted organic chicken my mom’s style. Just under the skin are the fresh aromatics of thyme lemon and garlic seeping out throughout the cooking. The vegetable medley has its skin on and is baked underneath the chicken collecting all the juices. The aromatics of garlic and fresh thyme with roasted lemons. Truss chicken legs to give a good look to your dish and it helps to cook the whole chicken more evenly.
