Method

Chicken Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your hearth oven to 425°F (220°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    Pat the whole chicken dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Season the Chicken

    Rub the olive oil mixture all over the chicken, including under the skin. Place the lemon slices inside the cavity of the chicken.

  4. 4

    Roast the Chicken

    Place the chicken on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. Roast in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the skin is golden brown and crispy.

  5. 5

    Rest the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for at least 15 minutes before carving.

Mashed Potatoes Preparation

  1. 6

    Cook the Potatoes

    In a large pot, cover the peeled and cubed potatoes with cold water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 7

    Mash the Potatoes

    Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add butter, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.

Grilled Asparagus Preparation

  1. 8

    Prepare the Asparagus

    In a bowl, toss the trimmed asparagus with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 9

    Grill the Asparagus

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the asparagus for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender and slightly charred.

Chicken Jus Preparation

  1. 10

    Prepare the Jus

    In a saucepan, combine chicken stock and bring to a simmer. Whisk in butter and chopped thyme. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
