This garlic-rosemary roast chicken is a timeless centrepiece for a traditional Sunday lunch. By tucking a fragrant mixture of fresh rosemary and pungent garlic directly under the skin, the meat is infused with savoury aromatic notes while remaining incredibly succulent. This method also helps to achieve a beautifully golden, crisp finish without the need for excessive fats, making it a lighter alternative to standard roasting techniques.

As a diabetes-friendly main course, this protein-rich dish focuses on fresh herbs and lean poultry for a heart-healthy meal. The addition of zesty lemon and pepper provides depth of flavour, ensuring every bite is satisfyingly seasoned. Serve this homemade favourite alongside a generous portion of steamed green vegetables and roasted root tubers for a balanced and comforting family dinner.

Ingredients for Garlic-Rosemary Roast Chicken

Olive or vegetable oil cooking spray
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh rosemary, plus sprigs for garnish
8 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tesked salt
1 roasting chicken (6-3.2kg )
Kitchen twine
1 lemon, sliced (optional)

How to make Garlic-Rosemary Roast Chicken

Heat oven to 204°C. Lightly coat a roasting pan and rack with cooking spray. Combine rosemary, garlic and salt in a bowl. Remove giblets and neck from chicken and trim off all visible fat. Starting at the neck cavity, gently loosen skin from breasts and drumsticks; spread rosemary mixture evenly under skin. Tuck wing tips under back of chicken; tie ends of drumsticks together with twine. Season with additional salt and black pepper to taste; place breast side up in pan. Roast, basting twice with pan juices, until a meat thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh (and not touching bone) reads 79°C, about 1 3/4 hours. Let stand 10 minutes before carving. Garnish with rosemary sprigs and lemon slices, if desired, and serve.
