Simply the best juiciest chicken.

A few months back, America's Test Kitchen had a recipe for French Chicken in a pot. I've made it now 6 times and each time I am just amazed at how wonderful it is. The chicken is so moist and juicy. It is also a really easy recipe. Basically you sear the skin of a whole chicken with some onions, rosemary and garlic with salt and pepper - 6 minutes on a side - ending with breast side up. I've been doing this in my big pot. Then you put foil and a lid on the pan and stick it in a 250 degree oven for around 80 minutes.

Once done you let the chicken rest on a platter with the foil on it and mean while pour all the accumulated juice in a fat strainer (straining all the onions, garlic, and rosemary out. Place in a pain and bring to a boil with some lemon (or lime juice). It is delicious!
