INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 450. Remove and discard giblets and neck from chicken.
Rinse chicken under cold water; pat dry. Trim excess fat. Starting at
neck cavity, loosen skin from breast and drumsticks by inserting
fingers and gently pushing fingers between the skin and meat. Place
rosemary and crushed garlic beneath skin of breast and drumsticks.
Lift wing tips up and over back; tuck under chicken. Place chicken,
breast side up, on a broiler pan. Cut a thin slice from end of each
onion. Remove white papery skins from garlic heads (do not peel or
separate cloves). Cut tops off garlic heads, leaving root end intact.
Insert meat thermometer into meaty part of thigh, making sure not to
touch bone. Bake at 450 for 30 minutes. Brush onions and garlic heads
with olive oil. Arrange onions and garlic heads around chicken. Reduce
oven temperature to 350; bake and additional 1 hour and 15 minutes or
until meat thermometer registers 180 degrees. Cover chicken loosely
with foil; let stand 10 minutes. Discard skin from chicken. Squeeze
roasted heads of garlic to extract pulp; serve as a spread on French
Bread, if desired. MC Formatted by [email protected] NOTES
