| Atkins - Herb Roasted Chicken with Lemon
HERB ROASTED CHICKEN WITH LEMON Servings: 4

1 chicken (about 3 pounds), washed and patted dry
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons chopped fresh herb (i.e. thyme, parsley, sage,
etc.) or 1 teaspoon dried
1 lemon, sliced into rounds, intact
2 tablespoons butter
3/4 cup reduced sodium chicken broth.
1. Heat oven to 350. Sprinkle chicken with salt, pepper and
herb, inside and out. Loosen skin from breast with an
index finger, and stuff 2 slices of lemon and 1
tablespoon butter onto each side of the breast. Place
remaining lemon in the cavity. Transfer chicken to a
roasting pan.
2. Roast 1 hour to 1 hour and 10 minutes; basting
occasionally. An instant meat thermometer should read
170 in the thickest part of the thigh (not touching bone).
Transfer chicken to a cutting board; wait 10 minutes
before carving to allow juices to redistribute.
3. Pour off fat from pan. Place pan over 2 oven burners;
pour in chicken broth and bring to a boil. Scrape up
brown bits on bottom of pan. Cook 2-3 minutes. Pour
over carved chicken.
The easiest way to know when a chicken is done is to use an
instant-read meat thermometer. Atkins - Herb Roasted Chicken with Lemon Copyright 2005 Atkins Nutritionals, Inc., All Rights Reserved. For more on how to do Atkins, go to Atkins Diet
