Fremgangsmåte

Marinate

Place the butterflied chicken in a large baking dish. Pour the Pinot wine over the chicken, then rub it with the softened butter and all of the seasonings, including the ground mustard.

Add the sliced onion, whole garlic, fresh thyme, sage, and bay leaves around and underneath the chicken. Cover and marinate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for even richer flavor.

Roast

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Cover the chicken and roast for 1½ hours, allowing all those buttery, herby flavors to soak into the meat.

Uncover & Crisp

Remove the cover and continue roasting for another 45–60 minutes, or until the skin is beautifully golden and crisp and the thickest part of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C).

Rest & Serve

Allow the chicken to rest for about 10 minutes before carving. Spoon those buttery pan juices over the chicken before serving. 🤎

Save this one for your next cozy family dinner. 🍂🏡
