Fantastic Chicken Burgers
My friend invented this recipe and it was so fantastic I had to share! The flavor is incredible!
Harvey's Moroccan Roast Chicken
Paprika, fresh mint, and lemon make the best rub for this roast chicken. It roasts slowly under the foil and turns out so juicy and flavorful. I throw baby carrots and cut potatoes in the bottom of the pan and it makes a full meal! For a spicier version of this recipe use 'hot' paprika. It seems like a lot of work to get all the spices together--but it's SO worth it. My husband asks for it once a week.
