How to Cook Roast Chicken | Jamie Oliver

[@alexandrakrupa8878]

I made this for Mother's Day and both my parents couldn't get enough. They said it was the best chicken they ever had! I was very proud of myself.

[@Jhonjiguantinas]

I don't really understand what kind of herb leaves he put it.i hope u can tell me thank u

[@peveral4246]

@@Jhonjiguantinas The herbs Jamie Oliver utilized for this recipe consist primarily of marjoram, basil, and parsley. I may be inaccurate in saying this, but I believe you can replace marjoram with herbs such as thyme or sage if marjoram isn't available where you are.

[@iftekhar77]

aww ☺️

[@EveyMo]

Definitely trying this. Just a quick Q. Was it salty enough? The seasoning seems a bit small 😅

[@alexandrakrupa8878]

@@EveyMo The chicken itself was perfect, if anything, I would probably put more salt into the gravy since that is my preference

[@tammynelson9568]

I have tried for years to make a baked chicken. It always ended up just okay. But I don’t eat the skin and when that is gone so is the flavor. I want to say I have successfully made the best baked chicken of my life. It is moist and the flavors just explode. Then with all the meat left(which wasn’t a ton) I made my homemade chicken noodle soup with it. I want to say THANK YOU for continuing to give me confidence and inspiration.

Jamie - You life saver!!! I live in Japan and I was suddenly asked to make a roast chicken. For some reason I accepted. I just followed your video and improvised where I could. No need to say, the dish was a success and I was up a notch on everyone's Christmas list. Thank you for taking the time to make these little gems.

[@jessicamcneace3756]

I love roasted chicken. I thought I had a perfect recipe until now. This is the most moist, flavorful, delicious chicken I have ever made. The gravy is perfect, I could drink it, actually I did. Thank you very much for this recipe.

[@potatopatata4833]

The idea of putting butter and herb inside the skin is amazing. Tried this today and was the best chicken I’ve cooked! Thanks Jamie!!

[@deborahwhitney9427]

I put garlic butter and herbs. The taste is just fantastic. I also do my gravy the same way.

[@DiannaAtherton]

We prepare turkeys same way. Compound butter under skin. Yum

[@potatopatata4833]

[@MariaBergersen]

how do you heat up the lemon?

[@potatopatata4833]

@@MariaBergersen Hi Maria I did not use a lemon 🍋

[@kurt5079]

To take the gravy to another level simply save the pan water from boiling the lemon and use that to make the gravy. The subtle lemon flavour it adds is really nice.

[@mckenziecarpenter7166]

I made this tonight with dried herbs (all I had in hand at the end of the week) and cooked the chicken and onions over potatoes. When the chicken was done and the juices drained for gravy, i smooshed the potatoes and stuck em back in the oven. I think this was the most amazing one pan dinner ever. Cant wait to try it with fresh herbs.

[@ChanandTanKitchen]

😍Just cooked this. OMG this is the BOMB man. Absolutely delicious. Loved the tip about sneaking the herbs under the skin and so easy to do. This has given me so much more confidence to try new and interesting things.

[@Huggybear101]

[@youtubecreators384]

A whole chicken is very cheap here in Sweden. And every time I buy one, I follow this recipe. Thank you so much Jamie Oliver.

[@semanticsamuel936]

The very cheap chickens are crap. Those very cheap chickens are intensively reared and grow at alarming rates (usually slaughtered after 30-35 days), stuffed full of artificial foodstuffs and excessive amounts of antibiotics. This isn't quality food, and it's extremely cruel. I'm of the opinion that those of us who make the decision to eat meat need to ensure our meat is responsibly sourced. It costs more, but that's fine because we shouldn't be eating so much meat - we should limit our meat consumption so that when we buy a piece of meat, it's the absolute best it can be and really put the effort into cooking something of top-notch quality that respects the animal. You can taste the difference between a quality piece of meat and a cheap one.

[@sadielong3021]

This is amazing! Had to deviate a little bit..used dry marjoram and dry parsley with some fresh cinnamon basil that I have growing. Also, I mashed the onion and garlic up after the chicken was done and did not strain those onion and garlic bits..why not keep them in the gravy, so I did and I think that makes the gravy more scrumptious than without. Thank you!

[@stonkykong5239]

Jamie, you delivered yet again mate! I followed this almost to the T, small variations but it still came out bangin!

[@suescookery4881]

I did your oxtail recipe and my husband couldn't get enough of it. Thank you.

[@versioncity1]

You can obviously put whatever you want under the skin. - the herbs are good, but trying mixing the butter together with about half a bulb of garlic, some dried chilli and tarragon. - turn the chicken once or twice, drain the fats & lemon juice 10 min before the end of cooking and then salt the skin for the last ten min. Enjoy....

this is GREAT!!! the temperature is perfect, the time is perfect, you’ll get a juicy chicken with the perfect chirpy skin, PERFECT😍😍 in case that you are using dry herbs or paprika or other dry spices as a rub I would recommend to cover it for 30min and uncover it for the rest of the time. 😊😊

Tried it tonight, added some garlic seasoning into the herb stuffing. Followed your cooking instructions. Literally got the meat falling off the bones. Loved it ! Gonna make this again tomorrow. Cheers
