• Rinse chicken and pat thoroughly dry with paper towels. Generously season the chicken, inside and out, with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Place the remaining 1/4 of the sliced onion, 1/4 cup margarine, lemon slices, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, and large pieces of celery into the cavity of the chicken.
• Place the chicken atop the oiled vegetables; scatter remaining 1/4 cup of margarine pieces and 1 2/3 tablespoon minced garlic in small amounts around the vegetables.
• Roast chicken and vegetables in the preheated oven until the skin is browned and crisp, the vegetables are tender, and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh reads 165 degrees F (75 degrees C), about 1 hour and 45 minutes. Let chicken rest for 10 minutes before carving and serving with vegetables.

Stuff the cavity with the bunch of thyme, both halves of lemon, and all the garlic. Brush the outside of the chicken with the butter and sprinkle again with salt and pepper. Tie the legs together with kitchen string and tuck the wing tips under the body of the chicken. Place the onions, carrots, and fennel in a roasting pan. Toss with salt, pepper, 20 sprigs of thyme, and olive oil. Spread around the bottom of the roasting pan and place the chicken on top.
• Roast the chicken for 1 1/2 hours, or until the juices run clear when you cut between a leg and thigh. Remove the chicken and vegetables to a platter and cover with aluminum foil for about 20 minutes. Slice the chicken onto a platter and serve it with the vegetables.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Preparing the Vegetables Peel the carrots and cut them crosswise into 1 1/2-inch-long pieces. Cut the thicker pieces in half lengthwise as well. Peel each onion and cut into quarters. Wash the potatoes under cold water to get rid of any dirt. Leave them whole and unpeeled. Scatter the carrots, onions, and potatoes on the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking or roasting pan. Sprinkle 1 1/2 teaspoons of the salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper over them, and lay 2 sprigs of the rosemary on top. If you are using dried rosemary, put 1 tablespoon in the palm of your hand and crumble it over the vegetables.
• Preparing the Chicken The giblets, which consist of the liver, gizzard, and heart, plus the neck, are usually in a package inside the cavity of the chicken, between the legs. Remove them and discard or refrigerate them to use later. If there is a pale-yellow chunk of fat on either side of the cavity, pull or cut it off and discard. Hold the chicken under cold running water and rinse it inside and out. Shake off excess water and pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the remaining 11/2 teaspoons of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of pepper over the outside of the chicken, rubbing them all over the skin. Set the chicken, the breast side facing up, on top of some of the vegetables, with the remaining ones surrounding the bird. Insert a dial-type (not instant-read) thermometer into the breast, taking care that the rod of the thermometer does not touch any bones.
• Roasting the Chicken Put the chicken in the center of the oven and set the timer for 30 minutes. When the timer rings, remove the pan from the oven and, using a large spoon, turn over the vegetables that surround the chicken. Don't bother with the vegetables under the chicken. Return the pan to the oven and set the timer for 30 more minutes. After 30 minutes, take the chicken out of the oven to check for doneness. Insert the tip of a small paring knife into the meat of the thigh where it attaches to the body. If the juices that run out are pink, the chicken needs to continue cooking for another 10 to 15 minutes. If the juices are clear, it is done. The meat thermometer should show a temperature of 170 degrees F to 180 degrees F when the chicken is done.
• Carving the Chicken Carve the chicken according to the instructions on the preceding page. Scoop the vegetables out of the roasting pan and onto a serving platter. Remove the fat from the pan juices. Arrange the cut chicken pieces on top of vegetables, spoon some pan juices over the chicken and vegetables, scatter the 2 remaining rosemary sprigs on top and bring the dish to the table for serving.

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Using a wooden spoon, combine the butter, mustard, half the garlic, the lemon juice, zest, rosemary, salt, and pepper in the mixing bowl until well blended. Loosen the chicken skin by lifting it gently from the flesh with your fingers. The skin will lift quite easily. Reserving 2 tablespoons, spread the herbed butter under the skin. Lightly spread the remaining butter over the chicken pieces. Put the onions, carrots, turnip, and the rest of the garlic into the roasting pan. Place the chicken on the bed of vegetables. Roast for 40 to 45 minutes, until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.

ROAST CHICKEN & VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400º. Place whole chicken in the center of a roasting pan.
• In a large bowl, combine the sliced zucchini, squash, brussels sprouts, onions and carrots. In a small microwave-safe container, melt 2 tablespoons butter (about 45 seconds to 1 minute). Drizzle melted butter over veggies and sprinkle with generous amounts of salt and pepper. Toss veggies to coat.
• Gently soften the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter (about 10 to 15 seconds in microwave). With your hands or a pastry brush, coat the chicken with the butter. Once chicken is buttered, evenly sprinkle on the rosemary (crushing with your fingers as you sprinkle), the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cayenne and generous amounts of salt and pepper.
• Place buttered vegetables all around the chicken (it may look like a lot, but trust me, they shrink a bit during cooking). Pour the half can of low-sodium chicken broth evenly over the vegetables, then place the roasting pan on the center rack of preheated oven and cook for 1 hour and 50 minutes to 2 hours. Slice chicken, and serve!
