Rinse chicken and pat dry with paper towel. Take out giblets, stuff with two halves of lemon, any herbs you choose and whole garlic cloves.
Spice the outside with a dry rub. Can try paprika, rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper.
Grease the bottom of the pan, chop veggies, peel garlic and toss it in with the chicken. I added bay leaves and fresh parsley. Bake at 350 for 45-55 mins. Stir and baste at the at 45 mark.

Crisp veggies for extra 10 minutes at 400.
Optional gravy: when removing the chicken, also set aside juice, onion and lemon into cast iron pan. Shake some flour and cold water in a mason jar then mix flour mixture with your juice and onions until you’ve got a gravy you’re happy with.
