There is nothing more satisfying than roast chicken, cooked just right. It's both a simple and a complex dish. Simplicity in it is that it doesn't require over the top ingredients or techniques to prepare. But the beauty of this dish is in the little details, which give it complex and delicious flavors. The truth… Continue reading The Beauty of Roast Chicken
