[Raefindel]

This is a recipe I posted on the "Concerning Hobbits" several months ago. it's my family's favorite chicken recipe.

Raefindel's Roast Chicken

1 6-7 lb Roasting Chicken (actually I can rarely find one that large, but it seems to work anyway, you just can't fit as many limes in the cavity)

2 or 3 small limes(roll on counter or table top and pierce with a corn holder about 20 times each)

4 tsp salt

1 tsp paprika

2 larg cloves garlic, minced

2 cups water

Preheat oven to 300. remove giblets and excess fat from cavity of chicken, rinse &pat dry.In small bowl mix salt, paprika& garlic into paste. Rub half in cavity and half outside. Put pierced limes in cavity. Pour water in roasting pan. Bake on rack, covered, 45-60 min per pound.
