Roasted Herb Chicken (Bondage Chicken) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 oven ready chicken (About 1 - 1.5 kg)
1 tablespoon dried rosemary
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon crushed black pepper (You may adjust the amounts to your taste, eg less salt.)
1 lemon, washed and pricked all over with fork

Preparation

Rub chicken with seasoning.
Prick chicken all over with fork.
Stuff lemon in cavity and secure legs with kitchen string.
Refrigerate for about 3-4 hours.
Longer the better.
Take out of fridge and roast breast-side up in a 220 degree centigrade oven.
For fan ovens, it's 200 degrees.
Roast for about 45- 1 hour, depending on size and doneness required, eg for crispier skin, a longer time.
For a fan oven, you may want to turn the chicken 180 degrees (I do that).
You may also wish to subtitute Rosemary with Oregano.
