Slow roast chicken recipe

Slow roast chicken recipe

The slow roast chicken is an old favourite - it is a Sunday evening supper for us at home.  We served it in the pub for many years and started adding potatoes about 10 years ago.  It will sit in the oven and wait for you to be ready and is even more delicious when it is a day old.
