This recipe created a moist, delicious chicken where the meat was so tender that it really fell off the bones. Also, the smell when you walk into the kitchen is <em>divine<\/em>!<\/p>\n<p>However, one housemate is a bit squicked by seeing meat on bones, so I&#8217;ll probably pick off his meal&#8217;s worth and put it on a plate for him next time, instead of simply setting the pot on the table for everyone to help themselves. Both housemates also agreed more lemon wouldn&#8217;t be untoward, and told me I should feel free to make this again if I wanted! :)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Lemon Herb Roasted Chicken<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Ingredients<\/em><\/p>\n<p>4-6 pound roasting chicken<br \/>\n1\/2 cup onion, chopped<br \/>\n1-2 tablespoons butter<br \/>\nJuice of one lemon<br \/>\n1\/2 teaspoon Kosher salt<br \/>\n2 tablespoons fresh parsley<br \/>\n1\/2 teaspoon dried thyme<br \/>\n1\/3 teaspoon paprika<\/p>\n<p><em>Directions<\/em><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Place the onion on the cavity of the chicken and rub the skin with butter.
