Notes
*****Once my chickens were a little large, so I cooked them an extra 10-12 minutes in the oven and it was fine. This chicken is so moist. You will not believe the flavor and how juicy it is. I also had a little white wine and deglazed the pan to add to the pan juices. You can also use the pan juices to pour over mashed potatoes which can be a side dish. Delicious, PEOPLE!
