Help! - About to put a chicken in the oven and

[hotpotmama]

I've not got any tin foil - Any suggestions please??? None of neighbours are in to cadge any.

I never put foil on a chicken then the skin goes nice and crispy!

i never ever use it to roast a chicken, baste frequently and you will be fine

ok, thank you. Guess you can tell I am no jamie oliver!!!

Me neither

I never put foil on a chicken. Rub oil into the breats or a knob of butter and baste.

No need to bother with foil. As Lulumama says, baste.

If you dont' seem to be getting enough juices, open a can of beer and baste with that. Verrrry nice (and all the alcohol burns off).

Love this site, where else can you get great tips in an instant!

Ok, so have put a knob of butter on it. Looking forward to this now!

rashers of streaky bacon on the breast are good too
