Roast Chicken with Apple Cider (paleo, whole30)

Roast Chicken with Apple Cider

December is holiday entertaining time.

Yay! for entertaining and parties and friends and all the holiday cheer! But “sighhh” because what are we going to serve? what are we going to wear? who is actually going to clean the house? How do I have time for all of this?

I at least have the answer to one of those questions. This Roast Chicken with Apple Cider is absolutely delicious and perfect for entertaining! Your house smells amazing and you look like a total pro with a tender, juicy chicken that is perfectly browned and crispy on the outside. It comes with a wonderful tangy gravy made with the apple cider and chicken juices.  Did I also mention that this is paleo (uses ghee!) and whole30 compliant. Yup, you’re going to want to make this one.

Are you ready to give it a go, you party animal you?

Do you want your house to smell amazing? YES? I think you do. Like apples and cinnamon and cloves and all of those warming spices? YES! In that case, you definitely want to be making your own apple cider.

I usually buy apple cider at the farmer’s market but making your own lets you control what kind of sweetener you use(maple syrup!) and how much you use (most recipes I see use 1 cup of white sugar and I just can’t even handle that). So if you want a lot of maple syrup, add a lot, if you don’t want any, leave it out! It is totally up to you!

Are you ready to give it a go?
