Kosher chicken 3-4 pounds

Chopped garlic
-
Paprika

Fresh rosemary and thyme

Cumin

Roasting

Squeeze lemon and pour over clean chicken.

You can put the remains of the lemons inside the carcass.
-
Season inside and out with fresh garlic
-
Season with the rosemary and thyme and cumin finish with the paprika.
-
I roast the chicken in a covered clay pot, but you can use a roasting pan tightly covered with aluminum foil.
-
Bake in a slow oven 300-325 for at about 1 1/2-2 hours.

Periodically remove the cover or the aluminum foil and baste the chicken. You can remove aluminum foil for last half hour and turn oven up to 350 -375 to brown the chicken.
Thanksgiving Turkey (add on)
I pretty much do the same method for my turkey but of course adjust the cooking time according to the size of turkey
