Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
- Clean chicken and remove giblets.
- Hack chicken all over with the tip of a sharp chef's knife to make gashes.
- In a small bowl, mix together thyme, garlic, salt, pepper and vinegar, and slather liberally on chicken, taking care that mixture gets into slits in the meat.
- Place chicken on rack in roasting pan and roast about 2 hours until golden and fragrant, basting every twenty or thirty minutes with a splash of wine and any juices in the pan.
- Now this is the crucial part, which will make or break the entire dish: If this is cooked properly, your chicken should be running with wonderful juices as you carve.
- Dredge each slice of carved meat in those juices before placing on platter-- the juices are loaded with garlic and herb flavor.
