Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- Mix the thyme, oregano, brown sugar, cumin, salt, paprika, and black pepper in a bowl. Remove half the spice mixture to another bowl; stir the minced garlic and softened butter into the mix in one of the bowls.
- Loosen the skin of the chicken over the breast, back, and thighs. Rub the spice mixture containing garlic and butter thickly underneath the loosened skin. Rub the dry spice mixture generously over the outside of the chicken and sprinkle some in the cavity. Place the crushed garlic cloves into the cavity. Place the chicken on a roasting rack set in a roasting pan; arrange the bacon strips over the chicken in a basket-weave pattern.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes; lower the oven temperature to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) and cook another 15 minutes. Reduce oven heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) and roast until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. If the bacon starts to look too brown during roasting, cover the chicken with a sheet of aluminum foil. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read at least 165 degrees F (75 degrees C) when the meat is done. Remove the chicken from the oven and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Prepare the chicken: Season the outside of the chicken with salt and pepper. Fill the cavity with the thyme sprigs and lemon wedges. Turn the chicken so the cavity is facing you. Put one end of a bacon slice squarely over the left thigh, run it over the breast meat and finish by covering the right thigh. Repeat with 9 more strips of bacon, slightly overlapping, so the thighs and all of the breast meat are covered. Then wrap one strip, slightly overlapping, around each drumstick.
- Cook the chicken: Transfer the chicken to a shallow baking pan or rimmed baking sheet fitted with a roasting rack and put it in the center of the oven. Roast for 20 minutes and then lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Cook until the juices run clear or the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove the chicken from the oven and allow it to rest for 15 minutes before carving. The bacon should form a hard shell over the breast meat. Take care to use a sharp knife when carving so the bacon stays on top of the white meat.
- Finish the dish: Make a sauce by pouring the juices from inside the cavity (along with the thyme and lemon wedges) into the baking pan. Put the pan over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Whisk in the mustard, add 2 tablespoons water and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes to allow the sauce to come together. Strain, pressing down on the lemon wedges to extract all the juice, and season with salt and pepper. Discard the lemon wedges and thyme sprigs and taste for seasoning. Serve immediately.
BACON ROASTED CHICKEN
My family loves this chicken! It is always so tender and moist and is a perfect Sunday dinner. The bacon helps to 'baste' the chicken while it cooks. Recipe can be adjusted to any size whole chicken.

Steps:
- Wash the chicken well, removing any excess fat pockets, and trimming the skin lightly if desired. Loosen the skin from the breast and leg meat carefully. Take out any innards trapped in the bones of the cavity and let fresh water clear it out. Dry the chicken well, all of you.
- Combine the thyme, garlic, salt, pepper, and olive oil in a bowl. Stir well, adding the lemon zest, and strained juice, if desired.
- Slather some of the mixture into the cavity of the chicken. Put in the chopped bacon.
- Massage the remainder, as deeply as possible, into the breast and leg meat, reaching deep into the drumstick, and around the thighs.
- Tie the chicken legs. If any of the skin tears along the seam of the breast, tape it back together with toothpicks.
- Fit a roasting pan with a rack and add broth to a level that will not touch the chicken.
- Lay in the hen, breast side down and roast at 350 for 40-50 minutes.
- Retrieve the chicken from the oven, turn, breast side up. Continue roasting at 350 until done, and the breast registers 165 degrees in the thickest part. Make sure to take its temperature periodically, I find that people have other things to do and let the chicken cook lazily, thinking that it is never going to be done, and then go to check it, to find that it has already ruined. Check it, at least twice.
- Transfer to a plate, cover loosely with foil, and discard the rack. Transfer the drippings to a measuring cup. Retrieve off most of the fat, you can save some out to add back to the pan, if you feel the desire to have it a little richer, I don't really like a fat gravy.
- Taste the drippings, add more broth if desired.
- Do not have it too salty. Mix some cornstarch into a bowl with a little water or room temperature stock (about 2 tablespoons starch).
- Bring the drippings to a simmer in a small saucepan. Let the pan be slightly below the boil, and add in the starch, by degrees until it is thick and proper.
- Cook, if needed, then serve with the roast, carved up at table.

ROAST CHICKEN WITH SHALLOTS, THYME, BACON AND GARLIC CONFIT SAUCE
This recipe was designed for new parents, who must cook stealthily to keep from waking an infant. The silent chef must follow a few simple, yet unforgiving rules: any busy, attention-demanding work has to happen before baby's bedtime; recipes must easily tolerate a lengthy span between prep and finish, ideally resting at room temperature to lessen the mess and effort involved in refrigerating and reheating; and the final steps, after baby's bedtime, have to be both quiet and fairly routine.

Steps:
- Stage 1, pre-bedtime. Pat chicken dry and season to taste with salt and pepper. Place a medium Dutch oven over high heat, and add 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter. When oil and butter barely begin to smoke, lay thighs skin side down in pan. Brown well on all sides until a rich amber color, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove chicken from pan, and discard fat.
- Return unwashed pan to medium heat, and add 2 remaining tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter. Add shallots, garlic, thyme and bacon. Stir gently (so garlic cloves don't lose their peels), until bacon is crisp and shallots and garlic are lightly browned. Raise heat, add wine and boil until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add chicken stock, bring to a boil and season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove pan from heat, and set aside at room temperature.
- Stage 2, post-bedtime. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Return Dutch oven to high heat. When liquid begins to simmer, rest chicken thighs skin side up on vegetables. Baste quickly with stock and wine, and transfer, uncovered, to oven. Bake 15 minutes, baste again, and bake 15 minutes more.
- Remove from oven, and transfer garlic cloves to a small plate. Separate cloves from their skins, and discard skins. Mash cloves with a fork, and return to sauce, stirring to mix. To serve, discard thyme sprigs, and place equal portions of chicken and shallots on two plates. Top with sauce. If desired, serve with rice.

Steps:
- Preheat the grill to 400°F (200°C).
- Place the garlic heads on a small sheet of aluminum foil. Drizzle 1½ tablespoons of olive oil over the garlic and season with ½ teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon pepper, then wrap tightly. Place the garlic on one side of the grill, close the lid, and roast for 35-40 minutes, until the cloves are tender and golden brown. Remove from the grill and let cool for 10 minutes, then unwrap the foil and squeeze the garlic cloves out of the skins.
- Meanwhile, season the chicken breast and thigh with the remaining 1½ teaspoons of salt, remaining 1½ teaspoons black pepper, the paprika, Italian seasoning, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the seasoned chicken to the rotisserie basket and turn on the motor so that the chicken rotates and cooks evenly. Cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove the chicken and let rest for about 5 minutes, then roughly chop.
- Heat a small cast-iron skillet on the sizzle zone over medium-high heat. Add the bacon to the pan and cook, flipping occasionally, for 6-8 minutes, until very crispy and cooked through. Remove the bacon from the pan and roughly chop.
- Roll out the pizza dough to your desired shape, about ½ inch thick. Brush the remaining ¼ cup of olive oil over both sides of the dough, then place directly on the grill grates (or use a pizza stone if preferred). Close the lid and cook for 5-6 minutes, or until the bottom is lightly browned.
- Flip the dough over and top with the pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese, cheddar cheese, chopped chicken, chopped bacon, and roasted garlic cloves. Close the lid and cook for another 5-6 minutes, or until the bottom of the dough is cooked through and the cheese has melted.
- Remove the pizza from the grill and sprinkle with the parsley. Slice and serve immediately.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: Opt for a whole chicken or chicken pieces with the skin on, as the skin helps keep the meat moist during roasting.
- Season the chicken well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika to season the chicken.
- Roast the chicken at a high temperature: This will help create a crispy skin and juicy meat.
- Use a roasting pan or baking dish with a rack: This will allow the chicken to cook evenly and prevent it from sitting in its own juices.
- Roast the chicken for the right amount of time: The cooking time will depend on the size of the chicken, but generally, a whole chicken will take about 1 hour and 15 minutes to roast.
- Let the chicken rest before carving: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more flavorful and moist chicken.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite sides: Roasted garlic, shallots, and bacon are all great options.

Roasting chicken with garlic, shallots, and bacon is a simple but delicious way to prepare this classic dish.
