don't know how you usually do yours
can you try using different herbs?
tarragon is nice
or stuff the cavity with some lemons for extra flavour
HTH

Thanks. I found a recipe book I didn't know was for slow cookers and it is in the cooker now. I have stuffed it with garlic and lemon and it is smelling yummy.

ooh that sounds lush
did you stuff the cavity or under the skin?

You must go outside and then back inside to fully appreciate the aroma

In the cavity.

Dh came home early to take ds2 to a party as I didn't want my pil babysitting so I am doing a roast having got a chicken in Waitrose.

So far we have the chicken, carrots done in olive oil and rosemary, stuffing (ds2 is mad for stuffing) and I am about to prep the potatoes for roasties. I will do more veg too. For pudding I have made a massive mince pie.

Are you having Thanksgiving or something?

sounding nice!
will try it the next time i cook my chicken in the slow cooker
have also roasted it with lemon and garlic butter smeared under the skin
hideously messy job but delicious results!

No, Ilovemydog. The chicken was reduced and with dh home early I thought we could all eat together (only happens at weekends) so I thought why not have a roast. Just as easy as cooking a regular meal.
