In the bottom of the roasting pan there's sweet potatoes, onions, garlic, carrots and celery. Inside the bird is more garlic, carrots, celery and onion as well as sprigs of thyme and rosemary and a few lemon wedges. Slathered all over the bird is an herb butter made with parsley, thyme, rosemary, salt and pepper.
The house already smells fantastic.
Yum! This is going to look great - did it taste heavenly? I can't wait to see the after-shots! :D

ReplyDeleteI BET!!!
Oh my gosh that looks so good and juicy and fantastic!! You are making me crave a roast bird. :)
ReplyDeleteKatie - It looked amazing but I just realized...in all the frenzy of making gravy and getting dinner on the table I didn't take an "after" shot of the whole bird! Shoot! I'll post tonight with the pictures.
ReplyDeleteMelissa - There is nothing like the smell of a roasting chicken. Man oh man!
Katie - It was so juicy - I was really pleased with how it turned out.
ReplyDeleteIt's funny...I realized as we were eating that Thanksgiving is 3 days away! Neither of us remembered that when we decided to have roast chicken for dinner. Whoops!
