- 2 large lemons
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil

- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- salt to taste

- In a small bowl, combine the juice of one lemon, olive oil, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper to create a marinade.
- Rub the marinade both inside and outside of the chicken, ensuring it is evenly coated. Place the remaining lemon, cut into quarters, inside the chicken cavity.
- Tie the chicken legs together with kitchen twine and tuck the wing tips under the body.
