In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, thyme, ginger, paprika, cayenne, and a large pinch each of salt and pepper. Sprinkle cavity and all sides of chicken lightly with salt and pepper.

Start adding the simmering chicken stock, about one cup at a time, only adding more chicken stock when the rice has absorbed most of the stock already in the pan.
Spring Roast Chicken making:
- Prepare your roast- line the roasting tray with foil to save on washing up. Dry the outside of the bird. Drizzle the inside and outside lightly with a mixture of vegetable oil and lemon oil. Season with salt, pepper and tarragon and push 2 quarters of the lemon inside the cavity for maximum juiciness..
- Add the roasting tray to the oven at 170° for 30 mins. Then add another dash of vegetable oil and the cut and peeled chunks of sweet potato to the tray. Return to the oven for about 45 mins. Baste the sweet potatoes with the roasting juices at intervals..
- Start preparing the salad in a large mixing bowl. Add the dressing as soon as the apple is added so that it helps stop oxidation..
- Time to turn up the heat in the oven to 220° for the last 25 mins to crisp up the skin..
- In a frying pan use scissors to snip 2 rashers of bacon and lightly fry these so that they start to cook and release their fat and juices. Toss in handfuls of white bread that you have cut or ripped into bite size chunks. When toasted with the bacon add these to the salad bowl. The heat from these items will wilt the leaves a little so maybe do this when its had 5 mins to cool down first..
- In a separate bowl salt cut up mini plum tomatoes and if preferred add a dash of balsamic to steep them in..
- Pull the tray out of the oven and test to see if the meat juices are clear and no pink ness remains. Put the bird on a carving plate to rest for 20 mins whilst you set the table and round up the people you intend to feed..
- Enjoy eating. You've been in a hot kitchen when its warm outside so nominate someone to bring you a drink to accompany the meal..
A few weeks ago he made a roast chicken for Sunday dinner accompanied by roast vegetables and homemade cole slaw. The next day, he made broth from the carcass and then made a wonderful roast tomato soup and quesadillas made using some of the leftover roast chicken. Stuff the chicken cavity with onion, celery and parsley sprigs. Settle the chicken in the Dutch oven and cover with the lid. There are three ways I use to tell if a chicken is done, and I do each of them every time I roast chicken: Use an instant-read thermometer inserted between the breast and thigh meat, avoiding the bone.
