I have cooked this chicken for every heartbreak in my life, and it has never failed. Take a 1.8 kilogram bird, rub it with butter, thyme and lemon, and place it in an oven at 200 degrees. Roast for 70 minutes, basting every 20.
Rest the bird for 15 minutes, which is the longest and most difficult part. Carve it at the table, serve it with its own juices and a piece of bread, and eat it with your paws. A roast chicken does not solve a broken heart, but it fills the silence, and it smells like a home that someone loved.
