We’ll be using dried lavender flowers, raw honey, garlic cloves, and lemon. You’ll be mixing the marinade together from scratch and then using it to coat a 4-pound roasting chicken. You’re going to want to bake the chicken in a roasting pan for approximately 55-60 minutes, stopping halfway through to remove the foil covering.
If you’ve been feeling a bit stressed lately, then I highly recommend giving this recipe a try. It’s delicious, nutritious, and it works well for providing effective stress relief.
