Roasted chicken

Roasted chicken is a classic dinner table centerpiece. You should serve it with dipping sauces, on a bed of vegetables and garnished with a few fresh herbs. Be sure to carve it up properly by first removing the legs, then the breasts, then the wings. If serving as a main course, keep the skin on. Otherwise, you can remove the skin, chop into smaller pieces and serve in salads, pasta dishes or sandwiches. Alternatively, try serving the chicken on a bed of greens, such as kale or arugula, which will wilt from the residual heat and soak up the delicious juices. Or serve it atop crusty day-old bread to make extremely flavorful croutons.
