List of Ingredients



• 3 lbs chicken
  
• 2 lemons, coarsely chopped
  
• 4 green onions, chopped
  
• 2 tbsp chopped fresh lemon thyme
  
• 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  
• 1 tbsp olive oil
  
• 6 sprigs fresh lemon thyme
  
• 4 thin slides prosciutto
  






Instructions



1. Preheat the oven to 350F. Place the lemons in a bowl and add the green onion, chopped lemon thyme, garlic and some pepper and mix to combine. Spoon the mixture into the cavity of the chicken.
   
2. Bend the chicken wings back and tuck them behind the body. Tie the drumsticks together using string. Place in a roasting pan on a rack, brush with the oil and top with the lemon thyme. Cover the breast with overlapping slices of prosciutto.
   
3. Cover the chicken with aluminum foil and bake for 1 ½ hours, or until cooked through.
   
4. Remove the foil and cook for another 15 minutes, then allow the chicken to rest in a warm place for 15 minutes before carving. Discard the stuffing before serving.
