Ingredients
- 2 heads garlic
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 sprigs rosemary (fresh)
- 1 1/2 orange peel (grated)
- 1 paprike (plus)
- 1 roasting chicken
- 1 black pepper (freshly ground)
- 3 1/2 cups chicken stock
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon rosemary (chopped fresh)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (freshly ground)
Add enough stock to come 1 inch up the side of the chicken. Place in the oven and bake 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until a meat thermometer inserted in the thigh registers 180 degrees. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let sit 10 minutes before carving. Add any remaining stock to the pan and bring to the boil over medium-high heat, stirring and scraping the cooked bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the remaining orange peel -chopped rosemary, and 1/2 teaspoon paprika; season to taste with salt and pepper. Continue to boil until the sauce is reduced by about one-third, about 5 to 10 minutes. Arrange the carved chicken on a serving platter and pass a bowl of the sauce separately.
