The one thing that I really missed this past summer was having my herb garden. Life looked at me and giggled when I even thought about putting one in. Still, I can find those bits of summer even when winter is starting to sink its cold claws in!
Herb Garden Chicken:
Ingredients:
1 (5-pound) whole chicken
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
1 Tablespoon dried parsley
1 teaspoon dried sage
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Directions:
In a small mixing bowl, combine all of the spices with the Parmesan cheese and set aside. Rub the olive oil all over the bird, inside and out, and place it into an empty crockpot.
Sprinkle on the cheese and herb mixture, and rub it into all sides of the bird, shoving a bunch inside. Do not add water.
Cover and cook on low for 7 to 8 hours, or on high for 4 to 5.
