Lemon chicken
4 people
1 whole chicken
150 grams of butter
2 cloves of garlic, grated
Fresh rosemary
1 tsp olive oil
1 lemon
2 tsp anchovy cream (can be excluded)
8 medium potatoes
2 large red onions
Salt
Black pepper
Put the oven on 175 degrees.
Mix butter, oil, chopped rosemary (1 tablespoon), grated garlic, anchovy cream and lemon juice from half a lemon. Season the butter cream with salt and black pepper.
Dry the chicken with some paper towels and place in an ovenproof dish. Put half of the butter cream under the skin of the chicken and the remaining cream around the chicken. Tip is to first stick your finger under the skin and create a pocket for the butter cream.
Cut the potatoes into smaller pieces and quarter the onion. Place around the chicken. Season the potatoes with a little oil, salt, black pepper and chopped fresh rosemary.
Bake in the oven for about 50-60 minutes.
Goes perfectly with a glass of bubbly!
