How to make it

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Rinse the chicken under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Season inside and out with salt and pepper.
  • Place the chicken in a large roasting pan.
  • Roughly chop two sprigs of the rosemary. In a small bowl, mix together Dijon mustard, honey, chopped rosemary, lemon juice and lemon zest.
  • Place the remaining sprig of rosemary, a lemon half, the onion quarters and garlic in the cavity of the bird. Using a pastry brush, coat the outside of the bird with the lemon honey glaze.
  • Place the roasting pan in the oven and baste the chicken every 15 minutes with any remaining glaze. Roast until a thermometer inserted into the thigh reaches 180° and juices run clear, about one hour. Remove and discard the skin. Serve hot or at room temperature.

    This is a very nice recipe. I pulled mine out at 163 degrees and it was cooked perfectly, any more and it would be dry. Also, I rubbed the honey/mustard mix under the skin to give more flavor. Thanks Coffeebean :) Added a review in the IMI ------------> Honey Roasted Chicken With Rosemary And Dijon#
