Here is another Paleo recipe stolen from The Real Food Mama... Enjoy!
Ingredients:
Whole Cage Free Chicken (they are usually called whole fryers)
6 pads of butter, about 2 Tbsp cut into squares
1 Tbsp Dried Thyme
Salt & Pepper
Whole Lemon, cut in half
Olive Oil
Pre-heat your oven to 375. Rinse your chicken well before preparing it. Brush some olive oil into the bottom of the roaster pan to prevent the chicken skin from stinking to the sides and bottom. Place Chicken in the roaster pan. At this point I use a finger to loosen the skin covering the chicken breast, place three pads of butter under skin on each side, slide one way to the back, one down by the leg and one on top of the front part of breast. Do the same on the other side. Squeeze lemon all over bird and then stick the lemon halves into the cavity of the bird. Sprinkle thyme and pepper over the chicken, and then liberally sprinkle salt all over the chicken. Place the chicken in uncovered roaster pan into oven for 1 1/2 hours.
Carve the chicken and serve with your favorite side!
