Rosemary, Hickory BBQ Sauce and Honey Roast Chicken Recipe

I love experimenting with different kinds of herbs and my favourite is Rosemary. I bought some dried rosemary from the local hypermarket and used it for my roast chicken. The chicken would be tastier and juicy if it is marinated overnight. The glaze I used is a mixture of honey and hickory barbecue sauce, which gave the chicken additional flavours.

Ingredients
Chicken, 1 bird
Rosemary, 1 tablespoon, dried
Lemon juice, from 1 lemon
Pepper, 1/2 teaspoon
Salt to taste
Honey and Hickory BBQ sauce, mixture, 50-50 portion.

Marinade the chicken with rosemary, lemon juice , pepper and salt. Leave it in the fridge overnight. Roast chicken in preheated oven at 180 Deg C for 1 hour. Glaze chicken with honey and hickory barbecue sauce mixture. Roast for another 10 minutes. Garnish chicken with parsley and tomato before serving.

I should try some rosemary on my roast chicken next time, good idea.
Usually I see it used with lamb a lot.
