Last night, I made Roasted Chicken using the Barefoot Contessa's recipe. If we had eaten it last night, dinner would've been at 10:30 pm because I had to roast it for an hour and a half. Instead, we'll have a super-yummy Chicken to come home to tonight.

The recipe was very easy: after rinsing and drying the chicken, salt and pepper the cavity liberally and then add a lemon cut in half, a bulb of garlic halved crosswise (we had a bit of a struggle figuring out which way was crosswise but we made it work), and a bunch of thyme. Then, I salt & peppered the outside of the chicken and mixed 1/4 cup of butter with more thyme and sage and filled the mixture between the chicken meat and the skin. Roast at 425 degrees for an hour and a half and your home will smell so good.
