This recipe goes with Pronto-Stuffed Pasta Shells Ingredients:
6 tablespoons olive oil |
1/2 cup poultry seasoning |
1/4 cup fresh rosemary leaves, finely chopped |
1/4 cup fresh thyme leaves, finely chopped |
4 teaspoons fresh minced garlic |
2 teaspoons salt |
1 teaspoon pepper |
2 (3- to 4-lb.) whole chickens |
Directions:
1. Stir together oil and next 6 ingredients until well blended. 2. If necessary, remove giblets and neck from chickens, and reserve for another use. Rinse chickens with cold water; pat dry. 3. Loosen and lift skin from chicken breasts with fingers (do not totally detach skin). Rub 2 Tbsp. olive oil mixture evenly underneath skin of each chicken. Carefully replace skin. Rub remaining olive oil mixture over both chickens, coating evenly. Place chickens, side by side, on a lightly greased wire rack in a pan. 4. Bake at 425° for 30 minutes; cover loosely with aluminum foil, and bake 45 to 55 minutes or until a meat thermometer inserted in thickest portion of breast registers 165°. Let stand 15 minutes before slicing. 5. Note: Dried herbs and seasonings may be substituted for fresh. Substitute 1/2 tsp. garlic powder for minced, but use the same amounts for the other herbs and spices. |
