Ingredients
  

  • 1 chicken, whole, raw
  • 2 lemon
  • 2 zucchini cut into sticks
  • 1 capsicum, red
  • 2 cob corn, cob cut into 2cm chunks
  • 1 onion, red quartered
  • ¼ bunch basil, fresh finely chopped
  • 3 clove garlic crushed
  • 3 tbsp oil, olive

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat your oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
  • To prepare the chicken. Thoroughly pat dry the chicken with paper towel and place on an oven proof tray. Sprinkle the skin with a pinch or two of salt, the juice of 1 lemon and 1 tbsp. olive oil. Using your fingers, thoroughly rub the skin to ensure the entire chicken is covered. Place in the oven for 90 minutes or until cooked through and golden. Remove from the oven and allow to rest on a serving plate. Discard the cooking juices.
  • To prepare the dressing. Combine the juice of 1 lemon, 1 tbsp. olive oil, garlic and basil in a small bowl and mix to combine. Set aside.
  • To prepare the vegetables. Heat 1 tbsp. of olive oil in a fry pan or grill pate over high heat. Add the mixed vegetables and toss for 4-5 minutes or until slightly charred in places. Remove from the heat and immediately toss them in the dressing.
  • Place the vegetables around the whole chicken and serve. Alternatively, divide the chicken and vegetables amongst 6 plates and serve. Enjoy!
