    I made this today and it was incredible! I used 6 cloves of garlic and rubbed it and the spices on top and under the skin. This was my first time roasting a whole chicken and will do it again! So easy! - 12/31/09

    I made this one tonight! Meat was moist and tender...and the legs just fell away. Being a novice cook, next time I am going to try and rub the herb mixture and garlic under the skin as well. - 9/24/09

    Mine's in the oven, too--I doubled the rub ingredients and did inside and under the skin. I also stuffed the cavity with quarters of delicious apple from our apple tree--think it's going to be a hit. - 9/29/09

    The BOMB! My 6 year old even ate 2 pieces, one of which was a breast! DELICIOUS! I too didn't have sage so sub. rosemary instead. Can't wait to try it with sage! Another new family favorite that's good for you! Thanks for sharing!! - 6/29/08

    i haven't made this yet, but i will. it sounds delicious, and easy to make. i'll probably do the oil substitutions, and maybe rosemary, but whether or not, it sounds great. - 1/24/08

    I used olive oil instead of the canola and this was soooo good! I made it for dinner when my sister and her fiance came over and everyone really liked it! - 1/23/08

    So easy! Smells good cooking! I usually stuff it loosley with onions.
    I love recipes you put together quick and just let it cook. Hubby comes home, the house smells good, and you've had over an hour to do other things!

    Absolutely delicious. I was only able to find a 6 lb chicken in our little grocery so I will have A LOT leftover for meals later in the week. I'm also going to use the bones to make Chef Meg's homemade chicken stock. - 2/3/10
