| | No Salt Added Roast Chicken
one 4 pound roasting chicken
3 tablespoons of unsalted butter
1 teaspoon of dried tarragon
1 tablespoon of lemon juice
a piece of lemon peel
Have chicken at room temperature. Rub chicken with 2 tablespoons of the butter, tarragon, and lemon juice. Place 1 tablespoon of butter and lemon peel inside the chicken. Roast chicken uncovered in oven at 300ºF. until tender, basting often. Chicken requires 30 to 35 minutes per pound. Instead of lemon peel and butter, a piece of low sodium bread fried in unsalted butter and rubbed with garlic may be substitutes. Serves 6
Variation: Put a green pepper or onion in the cavity of the chicken before roasting.
