Lemon and Garlic Roast Chicken

This is the best roast chicken I've ever had. I made two changes - I stuffed the chicken cavity with a sliced whole onion and lemons and I stuffed sliced lemon under the skin of the breast meat. I've never had chicken this moist and so flavorful! This is a new family favorite, thanks!

Very tasty, although I had a hard time finding the specific kinds of paprika in the recipe and had to use the plain old stuff. I roasted some potatoes with it, and it made a wonderful zesty gravy also!!!

Well Dave Caster you certainly have yourself one delicious bird here! I hadn't roast a chicken in sometime, but I knew there was a lemon / garlic recipe out there that I had previously used and enjoyed... this was it! This oh-so-simple way of roasting a chicken is nothing short of a classic recipe in our kitchen from now on. The bird had a wonderful enhancing not overpowering flavor, the skin was crisp and the meat was especially moist. I also, couldn't find the difference in paprika so I used Spanish, and it was bang on. I'm submitting a photo of this "Chick" in appreciation of your sharing such a wonderful recipe!

Great recipe, very easy to make, the smell alone already attracted my children. The flavor was great. We served it with Basmati rice.

Excellent. I did not have the sweet or hot paprika, so I also just used the plain paprika I had on hand, and it still came out great. My whole family really liked this chicken. I will definately make it again.

I made it with drumsticks. They came out very flavorful and moist. Even DH who doesn't like drumsticks enjoyed them. A nice recipe for turning the US dullest meat into something yummy. Thanks for posting

This was so good. It was the first time I had ever made a roast chicken, and the results were so fabulous! I followed the recipe pretty much word for word, except that I only had regular paprika. I stuck a meat thermometer in and just left it. So easy! My husband was amazed. Thanks Dave!

I made this for a potluck dinner, and I'm no cook, so I followed this recipe exactly. 1 problem was that the recipe calls for cumin in the ingredients list, but doesn't mention where to add it in the step-by-step instructions. So I inadvertently omitted it. Second very important thing I missed as a poultry-cooking novice: the weight of the bird. I overlooked that detail and got a 5-lb bird, which caused it to be undercooked. Even so, my friends complimented the wonderful aroma, savored the cooked parts, and one lady even asked for the recipe. I based my review on their positive esteem-boosting reactions, rather than my own disappointment in my culinary ineptitude. I will definitely try this one out again. This time it'll be perfect: I just know it.

Fabulous! Takes boring roasted chicken and gives it incredible flavour. No need for cranberry or stuffing or anything more. The directions were a little vague. I didn't see where to put in the cumin or hot papriko so I left those out. I used maybe 1 or 2 T of olive oil and thought that was plenty for the mixture, especially with the butter. Very simple, but incredibly delicious. I will make this again!

I combine this recipe with recipe 1559. This is the most flavorful, moist chicken you will find with just the right amount of spice. I tweak it sometimes by using garlic in the jar if I'm in a hurry. I've also put oranges instead of lemons or a lime juice/lemon juice combo. I've made this recipe three or four times now and plan to keep it a favorite. Thanks for sharing!
