Instructions
1

Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F. In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon of fresh rosemary, 1 tablespoon of fresh thyme, and 1 teaspoon of salt to create an herb paste.

2

Rub this mixture all over a 4-pound whole chicken, ensuring to get under the skin for maximum flavor.

3

Squeeze the juice of 1 lemon and 1 orange over the chicken, then place the squeezed halves inside the cavity along with 4 cloves of crushed garlic.

4

Place the chicken in a roasting pan and roast in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

5

While the chicken is roasting, peel and chop 2 pounds of russet potatoes and place them in a pot of salted water.

6

Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot.

7

Add 1/2 cup of heavy cream, 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter, and 4 cloves of roasted garlic to the potatoes.

8

Mash until creamy and smooth, then season with salt and pepper to taste. Once the chicken is done, let it rest for 10 minutes before carving.

9

Serve the chicken with a drizzle of the pan juices and a generous scoop of garlic mashed potatoes on the side.

10

Garnish with fresh herbs for an extra touch of flavor and presentation.
