Roasting

This a my super special for company chicken roasting method. Oftentimes I will just season a chicken, shove a lemon and some aromatics up its bum, smear it with butter toss it in a hot oven and hope for the best. But when I have time to plan ahead, this is the recipe I choose. The recipe is a conglomeration of 40 cloves of garlic chicken and a recipe that ran in the Times last year for chicken roasted on a bed of day old bread. You can add a few extras if you like; I made this last night and tossed in a few quartered artichokes, and other times I've included halved shallots. Olives, sundried tomatoes, leeks, paper-thin slices of lemon, and even bacon would work too. It will take to almost anything -- you could even use a whole grain bread and toss in dried fruit, onions, and chunks of apple, but I generally use sturdy Italian bread or sourdough.
