A roast chicken dinner is a great Autumn comfort food meal but sometimes it's nice to mix it up and try something a little different to perk up your taste buds; wouldn't want them getting lazy over the winter. Our family loves Indian dishes of all kinds and here we just used some of our favorite curry inspired spices to season the outside of the chicken while the cavity gets filled with aromatic ginger, garlic and onions. The result is flavor being infused into the meat from both directions for a very delicious result. We served it with a warm couscous salad on this occasion but your favorite rice dish would also be great too.
