Tried and True: Lemon and Milk Braised Chicken

I am always looking for a new way to roast a chicken and recently one recipe caught my eye – a Lemon and Milk Braised Chicken. I’m a huge fan of roasting chicken with citrus – there’s nothing like a few cloves of garlic and some lemons stuffed in the cavity to give a chicken some amazing flavor.  I couldn’t stop thinking about this recipe for days and knew I had to give it a whirl when I got back home.

This recipe is a keeper!  I added a bit of thyme to add to the lemony flavor and served it with some roasted brussels sprouts and potatoes. This chicken is so good, you might want to make two if you are planning to have leftovers for the week. If you don’t have a dutch oven and want to use a roasting pan, make sure to cover it with foil before you put it in the oven.
