This could possibly be one of the tastiest roast chickens I have ever made! And talk about easy---Les Paresseux are lazy people, but we all need a "lazy" kind of recipe now and then! All you are doing is adding fresh herbs - I used rosemary, thyme, and oregano 1/2 inside the bird, the other half outside. The chicken is roasted in a Dutch oven for 45 minutes at 450. Add vegetables, I used potatoes, carrots and shallots, Bake for another 45 minutes. That's it!
This recipe is from the new Dorie Greenspan cookbook - Around my French Table. This cookbook is really worth adding to a cookbook collection!
I am also joining Foodie Friday hosted by Michael at http://www.designsbygollum.blogspot.com/ , make sure you stop by for some great recipes and inspiration!
Kendra, this recipe looks fantastic! I am all for food for lazy cooks... sure, I can go all out sometimes, but I love to have a few great recipes like this up my sleeve. How wonderful.

What a deliciously different way to cook chicken. I can one of those Paresseux on many occasions. I'll have to find that recipe in the cookbook and try it soon!
ReplyDeleteThat looks so good. Love the crouton. I need to get that cookbook! Can't wait to see what you are cooking next:)
ReplyDeleteI know what I'm doing this weekend! Exercising my Le Creuset for this roast chicken recipe. Well done! BTW, love the crouton... Had you not shown it I would have assumed the bread would turn to mush under the chicken.
