    The chicken itself was just like any other roasted chicken. I put the lemons and garlic inside the chicken and I could not taste it's flavor. The sauce was just bitter to being indelible. This should not be served to anybody looking to get engaged!

    This is the BEST chicken by far that I have ever made... my husband agrees and it certainly makes up for the worst chicken I served him on one of our first dates! This recipe is impressive and if you're looking to impress anyone, this is it!!!!

    This is a family favorite for my family! I have made it several times for company and I always get rave reviews! The gravy is THE BEST! You don't need to change a thing on this recipe! I also want to add that I made this the first time my now husband came over for dinner. We are now happily married, engagement chicken worked like a charm! Thanks Ina :

    After reading all the reviews I thought to myself that I like lemon but I don't love it so this is what I did and it came out AWESOME. I made everything the same way except I used 2 lemons juiced on the onions, and if you find your onions are burning just stir them around a bit. When the chicken was done I made the gravy the same way but I added a extra 1/4 of a teaspoon of flour and a extra 1/2 a cup of chicken broth and Yum Yum the lemon taste was there but in the back ground. Hubie went back for seconds and thirds.

    Good flavor, so simple to prepare. Next time, though, I'll drain off the fat from the pan before deglazing... I didn't see a step in the recipe to do that, and I think it would be a good idea because my sauce kept separating (eww. With the wine and chicken broth in the recipe, there should be plenty of liquid for a sauce. I also wasn't a fan of the cooked lemons, but the onions were nice. I made this with mashed potatoes like some of the other reviewers, and that was a nice, simple side to go with this simple but tasty dish. Will make again!

    BTTER SAUCE! The sauce was inedible. The cooked lemons left such a bitter flavor in the sauce that there was no way I was going to serve the sauce and ruin the chicken and mashed potatoes I made as the side. I've made many of Ina's recipes, including those with lemon, and I usually love the results. The chicken was good, so I didn't give it one star.

    I would make this again but not put the lemons around the chicken to let roast with the onions. I think the sauce would have been great without the lemons.

    Absolutely easy and delicious. My husband said it was the best roast chicken he ever had, and for the first time EVER actually asked me how I made it. He poured the extra sauce over everything else on his plate. HIGHLY recommend this recipe. (And LOVED the lemon, not too much for us at all!
