This is for a clay pot or Romertopf Cookery.4 servings. Preparation time: 20 minutes. Cooking time: 60-65 minutes. Juice of 1/2 lemon 3 tbsp. softened butter Salt & pepper to taste 1 tsp. each: ground sage, ground thyme & ground rosemary 3-4 heads garlic, cloves separated but not peeled (Use only lg. & med. sized cloves)
Directions:
1. Soak clay pot and cover in lukewarm water 15 minutes or more. Drain.2. Put chicken into pot. Pour lemon juice into body cavity. Rub chiken with butter, salt and pepper and herbs. Distribute garlic cloves around and over chicken. 3. Put covered pot in cold oven. Raise heat to 425 degrees. Bake 50 minutes from time oven reaches this temperature. Remove cover. Baste chicken with juices. Raise heat to 450 degrees and bake uncovered 10-15 minutes, until breast skin is golden and thigh juices run clear when tested with cake tester. Serve this Choucroute topped with kielbasa or bratwurst, accompanied by new potatoes. Unlike most choucroute, which is cooked for 4 hours and is for my taste too strong in flavor, this dish tastes light and fresh. Hope the help...I dunno
