Description

This roast chicken with apple and aromatic herbs is a recipe that evokes memories of family celebrations. The combination of free-range chicken, reineta apple, and Provençal herbs creates a dish full of flavour and aroma. The apple, introduced inside the chicken, gives it juiciness and a sweet touch that contrasts wonderfully with the fresh thyme and herbs. The potatoes, cooked in the same dish, are impregnated with the juices of the chicken and cognac, resulting in a delicious and comforting garnish. Ideal for a special meal or a festive dinner, this roast chicken is a dish that always triumphs. The preparation is simple, although it requires time for the chicken to be perfectly golden and crispy. A dish to enjoy in good company!
