Dale, Just noticed this post, sorry I missed it before.

The chicken came out wonderfully. The only problem was I think I left too much salt on the bird when I pulled it out of the fridge to roast. I believe this was a problem with technique as I 'patted' it dry and I think I should have wiped it clean. I did use the recipe from the newspaper, but it was word for word what is in the cookbook.

How much salt do you use to coat the bird ahead of time. Do you remove it all to cook the bird?

The skin and pan juices were a bit too salty to enjoy, but the meat was incredibly succulent and juicy. I didn't make the bread salad as I had a request for couscous from my (15 yo) son. I'll try that as well next time.

I'll be trying it again next weekend. I'm thinking of pairing it with a 2002 Sobon Estate viognier I was gifted last week. Interestingly enough, I believe this is a bottle I gave to a mutual friend a few years ago. It's obviously been making the rounds. :-)

Thank you so much, I have printed it out and I hope that I won't offend anyone, but I am going to post it on another group that I frequent, of course giving credit from whence it came.

Thank you xxx

that looks like it (or a well-edited version, the one from the book is like 4 pages long!). It's important you find a small bird, not a 5 lb Perdue!
