Ingredients:
1 whole chicken – about 5 lbs.
Rub for the chicken skin:
Dashes of ground oregano
Dashes of salt
Dashes of black pepper
Dashes of garlic powder
1 tsp. of sugar
Drizzle of olive oil
Combine all of the seasonings in a small dish and drizzle with olive oil to form a paste. Rub all over the skin.
Orange Basil Butter:
3 tablespoons of butter
1 tablespoon of orange marmalade
2 cloves of garlic
Healthy handful of fresh basil
Dash of salt
Dash of black pepper
Place the butter and all of the other ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth.
Gently lift the skin and rub this butter all over, under the skin.
Preheat Oven 375:
Place the prepared chicken in a baking pan.
Bake 55-60 minutes or until the juices of the chicken run clear.
This is a juicy and delicious chicken.
Oven Roasted Red Peppers:
3 red bell peppers – sliced
½ Spanish onion – sliced
4 cloves of garlic – chopped
Healthy handful of fresh basil - chopped
Dashes of salt
Dashes of red pepper flakes
Dashes of dried oregano

These are delicious and go great on a sandwich.
Enjoy with Love,
