This was my first attempt at roasting a whole chicken and it came out GREAT!! It was so flavorful, tender, and moist! I've made it twice so far. For vegetables, I used onion, carrots, fennel, and red potatoes. My vegetables did not get burnt, but they got overcooked and soft as the veggies are in the oven with the chicken for 1.5 hours. First time I made this, I used 6 tablespoons of butter as suggested, and thought that there was too much grease in the bottom of the pan. So, second time, I cut butter to 3 tablespoons and thought that was sufficient. As some of the other reviewers have suggested, the garlic and herb in the butter mixture do get burnt on top of the chicken (i.e. it doesn't look as pretty as the one Giada made on her show. All in all, it is a great recipe. If you make this chicken, try making the risotto from the same show next day. I love this risotto!!

Wonderful and tender chicken. I saw everyone's vegtables were burning so I cut mine larger and also added more. And instead of the 1/2 cup chicken broth I used 1 and 1/2 cup broth. Also on my temp probe I let it go to 180 degrees as Weber says to do. Was so tender and falling off the bone. PERFECT!!! Thank you Giada. I can't wait to play with this recipe/add wine etc.

Absolutely fabulous, everyone loved it. It was my first roast chicken and it came out perfectly! Used olive oil instead of butter to lighten it up, and it still worked like a charm. I will be making this again and again!

Best Roasted Chicken recipe! Followed the instructions exactly. Most of my vegetables dried out or burnt on the top. But, the chicken was moist and had an awesome flavor!

This is the best chicken recipe I've ever made! Full of flavor and easy to make. All four of my kids and my husband loved it! I definitely recommend using fresh herbs like the recipe calls for! Great recipe! Thanks Giada!

This is the best Roast Chicken I have ever had, and I have made many different roast chicken recipes. The rosemary and thyme perfume the chicken amazingly, and the hint of lemon is perfect. Love the crispy skin. I love that Giada is not scant with the salt and flavorings. I can't wait to serve this for company!

This recipe was amazing! I chose it as my first roast chicken ever! It was moist, super flavorful and not to mention easy. The skin was very crispy and the thyme and lemon made it smell insaneeee. The only thing is, not sure if it was because of my oven but the herbs that were in the butter actually burned a little in the pan. Actually, the veggies kinda caramelized/burned in the pan, maybe my pan was too big? But either way, it was all really really good. My boyfriend was in love with it, he even fake proposed to me. Now to get him to propose for real...
