Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, thyme, salt, pepper, and juice from 1 confited lemon. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add the baby chickens to the marinade, ensuring they are coated well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

  4. 4

    Prepare for Roasting

    Place the marinated chickens in a roasting pan. Cut the remaining confited lemon into wedges and scatter around the chickens. Pour the white wine over the chickens.

  5. 5

    Roast the Chicken

    Roast in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the chickens are golden brown and the juices run clear when pierced.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Let the chickens rest for 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm with the roasted lemon wedges.
