Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F
  2. Mix together molasses, oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic in a small bowl.
  3. Smear the inside of the chicken's cavity with ~1/3 of the mixture.
  4. Stuff the cavity with the fresh herbs. Smear the outside of the chicken with the remaining mixture. Truss the chicken, if desired.
  5. Roast the chicken until the temperature in the thickest part of the thigh reads 165 degrees F. For a small fryer start checking temperature after 45 minutes.
  6. Allow chicken to rest 10-15 minutes before carving.
  7. Enjoy that mahogany skin!
  8. *I've used roasters (5-7 lb chickens) and broilers/fryers (2-1/2 to 5 pounds) with this recipe. Both work well, but when I want to use my rotisserie I'm stuck with the fryers because nothing else will fit. Of course cooking time will vary depending on the size of your bird.
