• 2 1/2 teaspoons Herbs de Provence
• 1 teaspoon Jane’s Crazy Mixed Up Salt

• 2 tablespoons Mrs. Dash original blend
• 1 whole chicken, cleaned, excess fat removed, and cut down the back with the backbone removed
• 1 cup chicken stock

2. Pre-heat the oven to 350 F.

3. Place chicken in a roasting pan and pour chicken stock over it. Cover the chicken and place in the middle rack of the oven. Cook at 350 F for 1 hour. Baste constantly (every 5 minutes).

4. Remove chicken from the oven and uncover. Turn the oven to 475 F and continue cooking for 10–15 minutes, basting often. Increase heat to 500 F and broil for 10 more minutes until chicken browns and skin is crisp.
