I seem to finally be winning the fight with this damn cold. My appetite is making a recovery and I felt like roast chicken tonight.

Roasted Chicken with Tarragon, Chilli & Lemon
served with Buttered Baked Potatoes and Asparagus Spears

Those potatoes turned out beautifully crisp and buttery on the outside and gorgeously tender on the insides.

I slipped a sliced of fresh lemon beneath the skin on the thigh parts of the maryland pieces. It gaves the chicken flesh such a tangy lemony flavour and the tarragon complimented it well. I was too lazy to brave the cold outside to get some fresh sage from the garden.
