INSTRUCTIONS

Sprinkle the chicken inside and out with the spice mixture. Place the
rosemary and thyme inside the chicken. Place the chicken in an oven bag,
tie, and, using a knife, cut a slit into the top. Place the bag in a
microwave-safe casserole and cook at high for 12 to 16 minutes (or bake in
a preheated 350 degree F. oven for 25 minutes), turning once after 7
minutes carefully. If any part of the chicken is pink, return (covered) to
the microwave oven for 4 or 5 minutes, or the oven for 10 minutes. Remove
the chicken from the bag, discard the herbs, and serve hot.

NOTES : Serves: 6 This incredibly simple dish tastes so good, takes so
little time, and looks so enticing that I use it in television
demonstrations, in my cooking classes, and whenever I want a quick meal for
myself or friends. You must use an oven bag to ensure a juicy outcome. The
fresh herbs are aromatic and the spice mixture gives the bird a speckly
look while adding incredible flavor.
