Herb Roasted Chicken w/ Roasted Garlic Brown Gravy

  • Save

I’ve been dealing with a lot of styles of chicken lately. From segments to quartered from brined to smoked. But let me tell you, nothing beats a herb crusted roasted chicken with a pan gravy on the side. Ever since I made parmesan cheese a staple in my chicken seasoning blends its really changed the final result of my chickens. It really helps draw out excessive moisture on the surface to help get a crispy crust, while still keeping a barrier so the meat can stay juicy. The extra parmesan flavor and saltiness is also a plus. Try this chicken out and let me know what you think!
