LEMON CHICKEN

[Ingredients]

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 whole roast chicken

4 tablespoons butter, soft

1 to 2 teaspoons lemon pepper

1 whole lemon

2 tablespoons lemon juice

½ cup honey

½ cup orange juice

salt to taste

[Recipe]

Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.

Rinse the chicken and dry it well.

Clean the chicken cavity.

Using the handle of a wooden spoon, carefully insert under the skin, starting at the neck. Slowly separate the skin from the meat without tearing through the skin. Set aside.

In a small bowl, mix the butter and lemon pepper;
Beat and mix with a fork until completely incorporated.

Rub the prepared butter under the skin, around the whole bird, out to the thighs and legs, and over the skin.
I find it easier to spoon a large piece of butter under the skin; Then I use my fingers to spread it by rubbing the chicken on top.

Add the chicken to the pan and cook 8 minutes per side.

Remove from heat.

Pierce the whole lemon with a fork and place it inside the clean cavity.

Combine lemon juice, honey and orange juice in a small bowl; Beat well
Transfer the chicken to the pot, pour the prepared honey sauce on it, and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours,
Or on HIGH for 4 to 5 hours.

Carefully remove the lemon from the cavity and squeeze the juice all over the chicken.

To serve.
