This post was meant to have so many different names. At one point I wanted to call it “The Most Expensive Thing in Your Kitchen (appliances excluded)”. Then I thought to call it “Small Kitchen Cooking.” There were a few more titles floating around somewhere, but I discarded them all at the end. Well, except for the most expensive one. That might get used at some point for an entirely different post.
The point of this post isn’t that important. It’s really here for me to crow that I’ve SUCCESSFULLY roasted a chicken, by myself, for the first time ever!! And on my first try too! Double crowing! *brushes off shoulder* oh yeah.
I followed the basic recipe outlined here: http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2010/04/herb-roasted-whole-chicken/
Pioneer Woman. :3 One of my favorite blogs and cookbooks! Warning, NONE of her recipes are “light”. But omigosh they’re so yummy. Funny thing is, this roasted chicken recipe is actually courtesy of Pioneer Woman’s friend Pastor Ryan. XD So, I supposed I should *actually* thank Pastor Ryan. And give thanks to Pioneer Woman for convincing pastor Ryan to put this on her blog! Woo! Thank you both!
Me being me, I couldn’t follow the directions to the letter. For one, I used dried herbs instead of fresh. Cuz uh…..fresh herbs are expensive. >.> I changed the amts of herbs used. I added different herbs. BUT THAT DOESN’T MATTER, DOES IT?! Because it (the chicken, that is) STILL came out amazing!
And… that’s all I have to say. XD I did mention before that this post was pointless, didn’t I? But hey, I actually posted something! First time in a really long time.
