This recipe serves 4.
What you need:
* 1 big chicken
* 6-8 potatoes, cut in rather big cubes
* 2 red onions, sliced in fours
* 300 g butter
* 6 garlic cloves
* Fresh oregano, marjoram, rosemary or any herb you like
* 4-5 lemons, cut on fours
* Mushrooms, cut in rather thick slices
* Parsnip, cut in thick pieces
* 3 dl white wine
* Salt
What you do:
Cut all the vegetables and place in a big casserole dish. Pour the white wine over it all. Now comes the fun and tricky part: place chunks of butter under the chicken skin without ripping the skin open all too much.
Stuff the chicken with half of the garlic and lemons and insert the fresh herbs between the legs and breast of chicken as shown in the photo.
Rub the chicken with some salt and place on top of the vegetables in the casserole dish.
Place in preheated oven 200° C for about one hour. Turn on the upper grill the last ten minutes if the chicken skin does not look crispy.
