You can also dice it, mix it with peppers or any other veg you fancy, stir it into some cooked pasta and either drizzle with a dressing or stir in some mayo.
You can do anything with chicken really, it's very versatile. Have it with a jacket potato and mayo or stir it into some creamed mushrooms, whatever you fancy. Dice it and mix it with salad and dressing, then have it in a wrap.

- Blend into a paste: fresh herbs such as rosemary, thyme, sage, basil, dried oregano, some lemon juice, olive oil, (preferably full-fat greek) yoghurt, garlic, salt and pepper.
- With your hand, carefully separate the skin of the chicken from the meat (breast, thigh and drumstick if possible), and fill the space between skin and meat with the blended paste. Truss to seal, maybe with additional toothpicks if necessary.
If your schedule permits, marinate overnight. - Rub the outside of the chicken with olive oil, season with salt and pepper. Roast the chicken very slowly (130� - 140� for about two hours), basting regularly with the juices.
