Garlic Citrus Roast chicken

[Coupon_Queen]

Dinner tonite is roast chicken, on sale this month at Publix for .99 a lb
This is a Giada De Lorentis recipe

Use a 3-5 lb chicken. Remove yucky stuff inside.
Stuff with:
one lemon cut into 8 slices
one small orange cut into 8 slices
salt/pepper
garlic cloves or chopped garlic

Glaze (I eyeball this):
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup frozen orange juice concentrate(one can will last for several of these)
few tbsps oil
oregano-about a half tsp.-tsp. depending how much you like
1 tsp. chopped garlic
salt/pepper

Place in an oven bag in pan. Stuff with above listed. Sliding your fingers between the skin and breast, peel back the skin a little, so glaze can get underneath. Slice a few slits over drumsticks and other parts so glaze can seep in. Pour glaze all over, rub into meat and into slits. This will give extra flavor, so when you peel off the skin the actual meat will have more flavor. Bake at 400 for about 1 hour 45 minutes depending on size. Enjoy!

I also use a turkey baster to suck out the juice, and reduce it in a small saucepan for gravy. Just add a little cornstarch and water. If you don't use an oven bag, reserve some of the glaze to baste with and pour a little chicken broth in bottom of pan, scraping bits to make gravy. The gravy will be less flavorful if you do it this way. I serve this with mashed potatoes and either glazed carrots or steamed broccoli. Extra meat can be used for multiple other meals, depending on size of your bird and your family!

Please share your roast chicken recipes, this is the only one I know for whole chicken!
