Chicken Pepperoni Too

"I like roasting chickens on one of those upright stands. Flavors run down thru the poultry, and excess fat drains out; and you can watch it turn nice and brown as it cooks. Herbs and spices can be added to the pepperoni when "stuffing". Carve and serve this dish with your favorite pasta and marinara sauce"

Reviews

  1. DH and I enjoyed this very much. We have been on a low carbohydrate diet and found this to be an excellent choice for that type of diet. The pepperoni gave the chicken that little extra "pizazz". We probably used more than 1/2 cup pepperoni and added extra cajun seasoning.
