Honey Horseradish Roasted Chicken
-
- 1 3-4 pound whole chicken dried well and with innards removed
- ½ lemon
- 5 cloves garlic
- ½ white onion
- 5 fresh rosemary springs
- 1/4 cup prepared horseradish
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 Tablespoon salt
- 1 Teaspoon ground black pepper
- Parsley for garnish
-
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F with a rack in the middle.
-
Then put the chicken breast side up on a roasting rack in a roasting pan.
-
Stuff chicken with the lemon garlic, onion and rosemary sprigs.
-
In a small bowl, whisk together horseradish, honey, olive oil, salt and pepper.
-
Spread all over the chicken, making sure to get under the skin as well.
-
Truss the chicken, or tuck the wings under the body and tie together the legs.
-
Roast chicken for 1 hour and 20 minutes, and then turn the oven up to 450 degrees F to brown the skin. Continue cooking about 20 more minutes until the internal temperature near the thighbone is 160 degrees F and the juices run clear (it should continue to cook once removed from the oven until the temperature is 165 degrees F).
