Step 1

Pick the herbs, grate the garlic

Step 2

Add everything to the food processor and blend until a nice coarse consistency.

Step 3

(You don’t want it too smooth)

Step 4

Take the chicken out of the fridge at least an hour before you plan to cook it.

Step 5

To prepare the chicken, start by removing the wish bone, you do that by lifting the skin at the front of the breast, and inserting a thin sharp knife around both sides of the wish bone and pulling it out. Replace the flap of skin and tuck under the bird.

Step 6

Prepare the vegetables and stuff them inside the cavity of the chicken.

Step 7

Set oven to 250°C

Step 8

Rub the chicken with rapeseed oil and fine salt and place in the middle shelf of the oven. Set oven to 250°C

Step 9

Roast for 20-25minutes until well coloured, basting after about 10 minutes.

Step 10

Once well coloured add in the cherry tomatoes and place back in the oven for 20-25 minutes (if using a temperature probe cook until the breast is at about 60°c)

Step 11

Remove from the oven and rest for 20minutes before carving
