2
small broiler/fryer chicken, about 1 1 ⁄
2
to 2 pounds (no larger)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 ⁄
2
teaspoon dry thyme*

4
teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 4-inch sprig fresh thyme*
1 clove garlic, peeled and cut in half
1 small onion (about 2 ounces), peeled and quartered
4 strips lemon zest (3 x ½ inches each)
Place the rack in position A and preheat toaster oven to 400ºF on
bake setting.
Rinse chicken with cold water and pat dry. Place the broiling pan in the drip
tray in the lower position; add ¼ cup water to the pan and lightly coat with
cooking spray.
Rub chicken skin with olive oil and lemon juice. Combine the thyme, salt
and pepper. Rub half the mixture in the cavity of the chicken and half on
the skin of the chicken. Place the thyme sprig, garlic halves, onion quarters
and lemon zest on the prepared pan. Arrange the seasoned chicken on
top of the vegetables and herbs, place in toaster oven and roast for
20 minutes, then lower the temperature to 350ºF and continue to roast
for another 20 to 25 minutes. (Internal temperature of the chicken should be
170ºF when tested in the breast, and 180ºF when tested in the dark meat;
juices should run clear.)
Turn off oven and remove the chicken to a platter. Let stand 10 to
15 minutes before carving (cover loosely with foil if desired, but skin
will lose its crispness).
*You can use other herbs such as basil, marjoram, oregano, or rosemary.
