Fabulous recipe. Easy to make. Family devoured it and raved about it. One of the best roasted chicken recipes i have ever eaten. This is a keeper and will absolutely make this again. The flavor of the chicken was incredible! The meat was moist and the herbs in the cheese infused into the whole bird. The sauce was a velvety indulgence. Awesome, awesome recipe!

This chicken recipe is divine. A comfort food that always does the trick. Quick tip: Boursin seems to be much cheaper at Trader Joe's and Costco than other places.

Also, I like to make a shortcut version of this on work nights... Buy a rotisserie chicken from the supermarket. Saute a chopped shallot, deglaze w/ sherry. Add room temp Boursin and thin with chicken stock. Serve over brown rice with a green vegetable.

I tried this recipe based on the reviews as well as the fact that the ingredients sounded really tasty. It was an enormous hit with my girlfriend and our dinner guest. So good that I made it the next weekend when my girlfriends mother visited from a different state. She had the same reaction and vowed to make it immediately upon returning home.

I went with a slightly bigger chicken hoping to have a decent amount of leftovers to have as a lunch the next day, but everyone devoured all but a drumstick. Because I wanted it super-cheesy (I love that particular Boursin cheese style anyway I used 3 blocks of cheese with a 6.5lb chicken. At that point however, you are spending a lot of money on cheese compared to the price of the actual meat but nothing exceeds like excess, right?

I will certainly keep this as my number one roast chicken recipe. I suppose you can find someone who would not like it, but it got absolute rave reviews from my people.

Tasty and delicious. And super,super easy. Best part....leftovers made a fantastic chicken salad the next day.

I think next time I will make it, I won't use as much salt to season the chicken as the cheese itself is awfully salty. (Which is odd that I would say this because I never think things are too salty. Also, I think you could probably get away with 1 block of cheese instead of two.

This chicken was so simple and moist. The cheese sauce that goes over the chicken was so rich and succulent and I loved it over my mashed potatoes!!

8 oz. cream cheese, softened; 1 stick (1/4 lb butter softened (could use margarine 1/2 t. oregano; 1/8 t. thyme; 1/8 t. dill weed; 1/8 t. marjoram; 1/8 t. pepper; 1/8 t. basil; 1 large garlic clove, minced. Mix well using blender. Makes > 12 ounces, so I just saved a little for crackers. Make early on roasting day or the day before to allow flavors to blend at least 2 hours. This roast chicken dish was a real hit with my family.

This is my boyfriend's & my favorite chicken recipe! We are addicted. The only thing I do differently is add way less hot water to the cheese sauce. With all of the chicken drippings, I usually only need a splash if any water.

Simple and tasty. Going to experiment with other soft cheses and ideas... thinking a jalepeno type with a pepper sauce glaze.
