nonsense!

Roasting a chicken has been in my to-cook list for a while now. I always thought of it as something really hard or annoying, and I kept pushing it aside. Last week, however, I ran into into this super simple roasted chicken recipe the other day, and decide that it was about time to give it a try (Thomas Keller’s choice of it as his last meal gave it an extra bonus).

Roasting the chicken turned out to be simpler than I thought. It took me about an hour and a half from prepping to table, with a very crispy and tasty bird at the end. The only hard thing was cutting the chicken into good-looking portions. If you haven’t done it before, I really recommend going through this guide while the bird cooks.

A tip: If possible, use sea-salt instead of kosher salt. The saltiness goes really well but the crispy meat and the thyme.

Give it a go, you’ll be surprised how easy and good it is!
