Seaton Sunday Roast Chicken OAMC

"From Kelly @ onceamonthmom.com This is even better than the rotisserie chickens at the stores, and so simple and healthy. It's DIVINE!!! I've also made it with chicken quarters. Just omit stuffing the cavity with lemon & herbs. Crush the herbs up & throw some in the marinade instead. I imagine it works best with bone-in pieces. Enjoy!"
