A delicious and healthy way to feed a family of four. In our house a whole chicken works perfectly, Tris and Toby love the breast meat, while Charlie and I enjoyed the legs. As always, don’t waste the delicious lemony, garlicky jus at the bottom of the pan, use it as a gravy and drizzle over your meal.
