Thanksgiving Poultry Pageant - The Bird


Thanksgiving Lemon-Pepper Roasted Chicken

Oh there's no place like drunk for the holidays, now quit your bitchin' and get into my kitchen. After you catch, kill and pluck your chicken, watch this video and learn how to roast it! Ingredients listed below.


You will need the following: 

1 five-pound chicken
celery
carrot
onion
garlic
1 tsp cracked pepper
1/4 c lemon juice
1 tbsp lemon zest
a few sprigs fresh rosemary
2 tbsp butter
olive oil

for gravy

2 c chicken stock
2 tbsp corn starch
salt & pepper


I ran out of camera battery before I could show ya'll how to make gravy from your pan drippings. This final step is best done while your chicken is resting. All you do is discard the veggies and skim all visible fat from the pan juice. Heat pan juice with corn starch and gradually add in stock. Stir until thickened and serve warm.
