As the name says "perfect roast chicken" and it certainly is perfect. I actually went and bought a lodge logic cast iron skillet from Cracker Barrel (bonus, my daughter and I ate there as well. I've never had or used a cast iron skillet and was excited to try it. This roast chicken was so delicious, really a gourmet tasting dish. I made it for Easter dinner and it was a hit. I forgot white wine and was fairly tired from cooking all day so I skipped making gravy and just used the dripping from the pan to pour over the chicken. Those drippings were incredibly good! Thanks Neelys! This is going into a regular rotation. I mean inexpensive and so delicious! How can you beat that?

Delicious, moist and tasty "gravy", but chicken wasn't quite done near bone so next time think I will preheat the skillet, add the onions and bake for a little longer. I did add some cornstarch/liquid to thicken the sauce a bit. Think I'll try the soup with the leftovers as others have mentioned. Would definitely make again. thanks for a tasty recipe.

Love this recipe! It's my new go-to roast chicken recipe. I also lowered the oven temp. I served this with roasted potatoes and roasted asparagus--the "roasted" theme was too good for me to pass up!

Just unbelievably good. We usually roast our chicken out on the rotissere but this is even better. I listened to other reviews and lowered the temperature to 400. I also doubled the herb butter recipe the second time I made it, it's just that good. I also put the rest of the lemon in (why waste it and more garlic and onion inside too. The leftovers made a fabulous chicken soup too. Easy and perfect!

OMG! This is by far the most "ONO" (delicious in Hawaiian chicken ever! All the reviews are true about it being a very moist and tasty chicken! I did have to lower the heat to 425.....just to be on the safe side. MAHALO NUI LOA ( thank you very much Gina and Pat for sharing your ono recipes with us! Definitely a KEEPER!

I only had fresh rosemary and garlic, but this still turned out Great! Moist, fall off the bone, aromatic, Yum. My wife really loved it. I think this dish will be requested often. I didn't have white wine on hand so the gravy was only so so. I'll be sure to grab a bottle next time. I used the leftovers for an added twist to Mama Jean's Chicken Noodle Soup a few nights later.

I made this chicken and it was sooooo yummy! This was my second time ever roasting a chicken (my first time was a complete failure I was super nervous about doing it again, so glad I did. The gravy was amazing as well. I made chicken stock as the recipe called for but when I took the chicken out and tasted the juice it made I used that for the gravy it was very rich and yummy, I served it with roasted garlic mash potatoes and broccoli. Oh, and I made extra herb butter and served it with french bread! Now I am making soup with the left over chicken.

This chicken is so moist, even the white meat is juicy. I have started to dislike the white meat of chicken because it is so dry I have to take small bites and drink a lot just to swallow it, BUT this is tender, flavorful and sooo juicy. When I saw this recipe had gravy - I thought - Oh no not another dry chicken recipe that needed gravy to add moister to it. This was NOT the case at all. I also added some small carrots and potato chunks under the chicken and they had a great flavor also. We will definitely have this recipe often.
