Normally when I buy a whole chicken, it is so that my husband can smoke it on the grill. Although I really love smoked meats, I wanted something different. This recipe caught my attention because it contained cinnamon, which I dearly love. I have also made chicken with milk before so I knew that it would be really moist. If you like roasted chicken, then try this recipe. You will not be dissapointed.

Ingredients:
1 3 lb. organic chicken
salt & freshly ground black pepper
2 T butter
1 cinnamon stick
1 t dried sage leaves
2 lemons, zested and juiced
6 garlic cloves, skin left on
1/2 t red chili flakes
2 c milk
Preheat oven to 375F. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat butter over med-high heat in a cast iron pot and when butter is bubbly and hot, add chicken, browning all sides. When the chicken gets evenly colored, turn off heat, remove from pot and set aside. Remove butter and fat from pan (reserve to fry potatoes at a later date) and place chicken back in pot. Add in the remaining ingredients. Put the lid on and bake for 1 hour. Baste the chicken. Take off the lid and bake for another 30 minutes. Baste as needed. Remove from oven and serve.
