Ingredients
- 1 (3 lb) whole chicken
- Pink Himalayan Mineral Salt, fine
- Black pepper, freshly ground
- 1 heaping TBS Garlicky Wild Mushroom Rub & Seasoning, divided
- 1 small red onion, quartered
- 1 small lemon, quartered
- 6 cloves garlic, smashed
- 1 bunch fresh thyme, roughly chopped
- 2 TBS Butter Extra Virgin Olive Oil, plus 2 tsp for drizzling
- 1⁄2 lb sliced bacon, cut in half crosswise
- 3 lb whole white button mushrooms, cleaned
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 400˚.
- Pat the chicken dry with paper towels.
- Season the cavity with salt and pepper.
- In a large bowl, combine the onion, lemon, garlic, half the thyme, 2 TBS Butter EVOO and 2 tsp Garlicky Wild Mushroom Rub, mixing it well.
- Stuff the bird with the mixture.
- Place the chicken breast side up in a roasting pan and layer the strips of bacon over the breast until covered.
- Sprinkle remaining thyme and Garlicky Wild Mushroom Rub over the bird and drizzle with 2 tsp olive oil.
- Roast the chicken for 1 1/2 hours.
- Arrange the mushrooms around the chicken 45 minutes into the roasting and baste with the pan juices every 20 minutes.
- The chicken is done when an instant-read thermometer registers 165˚ F when inserted into the thickest part of the thigh. The legs should wiggle easily in their sockets.
- Remove the chicken from the pan, cover with foil, and let stand for 15 minutes to rest.
- Serve the chicken with the roasted mushrooms and pan juices.
