Flavor Buttered Roasted Chicken

"Adding a few ingredients to butter (or margarine if you prefer) makes this chicken easy and flavorful. This is the simple basic version, it is completely versatile with alternate herbs and spices. The technique of oven cooking at a lower temp is what makes it fool proof. Over cooking can be forgiving at this temperature, but I try to get it perfect with a meat thermometer :)"

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>I post what I cook. It's an eclectic, and hopefully simple collection of recipes. I'd love to post most of what I cook, but frankly I'm not good at the measurements and I tend to be a 'add a dash of this and that' kinda cook.&nbsp;As a&nbsp;result, I can be a little lazy in posting recipes.&nbsp;I strive to make large meals that don't cost a lot, I've got 4 kids. Yes they eat what I post :)&nbsp; My main goal these days is to get the most out of what we pay for groceries...with 5 large eaters &nbsp;me, we're&nbsp;on a 'below low income level' budget, it's important to buy cheap and cook around the ingredients. Some recipes come from&nbsp;splurges ;)&nbsp; Use the recipes as a guidline and modify to suit your tastes.</p>
