Method:

1. Sprinkle the chicken with salt, inside and out. Stuff it with half the herbs and 4 garlic cloves. Place the chicken in a casserole dish and surround with remaining garlic, herbs and vegetables.
2. Coat chicken and vegetables with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Cover and bake in a preheated oven at 200 ºC for about 1 1/2 hours.
3. Remove from oven and skim the fat from the juices. Pour the juices into a jug. Serve the chicken hot, accompanied by the sauce and toasted baquette or French bread. (The tasty purée from the roast garlic cloves can be spread on to the toast.)
