Rosemary Lemon Sea Salt Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F if you have no convection fan, or to 425 degrees F if you have a convection fan.
• Rinse the chickens inside and out and dry well.
• Make the salt: In a bowl, combine the lemon zest, rosemary, salt, and pepper, mixing well. Rub the chicken all over with the olive oil, and then rub with 3 tablespoons of the seasoned salt. (Reserve the remaining salt for another use.) Tuck the rosemary sprigs and lemon chunks into the chicken cavity. You don't need to truss the chicken.
• Place the bird on a rack in a roasting pan and roast for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature by 75 degrees F and continue roasting until the juices run clear when a thigh is pierced with a skewer, about 50 to 55 minutes longer. Transfer the chicken to a platter and let rest for at least 10 minutes before carving.

Steps:

• Place 1/2 cup coarse sea salt, rosemary, and lemon thyme in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse, grinding salt until rosemary and thyme have a fine consistency. Add 1 cup sea salt and pulse to combine.
• Pour salt mixture into a shallow baking dish and let air dry for 2 hours. Transfer salt to a glass jar and screw on lid.

Steps:

• Place everything except the whole garlic clove into food processor and pulse until the salt is slightly ground and the ingredients combined.
• Pour the salt mixture into a jar and push the whole garlic clove down into the salt; cover the jar.
