Fresh Herb and Garlic Chicken
I go this off the whole fryer bag….it was yummy!

1 whole fryer
4 cloves fresh garlic
1 tsp. fresh thyme
2 Tbsp. fresh rosemary
2 tsp salt
1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
2-1/2 Tbsp. olive oil
1-1/2 Tbsp. red wine or gourmet vinegar (I used wine)
Olive oil

Finely mince garlic, thyme and rosemary leaves (I used dried just fine). In small bowl, blend garlic, herbs, salt, pepper, olive oil and wine. Loosen skin around body of chicken by moving fingers between the skin and the meat; rub herb mixture under loosened skin; rub remaining mixture inside cavity of chicken. Place chicken on rack in roasting pan. Lightly brush with chicken with olive oil. Bake uncovered in 325 oven approximately 1 hour and 45 minutes, or until juices run clear when chicken is pierced with fork.
