    Question Roast chicken stuffing. Does anyone have a good recipe?

    I got a roast chicken that I plan to cook on the weekend but I would love to attempt to stuff it but I have no idea what is even in the stuffing .

    I could google a recipe but I would prefer a tried and tested recipe.

    Any recommendations?

    You can make a traditional one with mixed herbs, fresh breadcrumbs, seasoning, onion and egg.
    I have recently been making one similar to the above and putting in diced dried apricots - sundried tomatoes are also nice.
    Sage, onion are also a nice combo with chicken.
    As are lemons.

    Yeah, just make it up as you go along. I love to (well, when I ate chook) use the Woolies' four seed bread with whatever else - sage and lemon juice was a favourite.

    Breadcrumbs, macadamias and lemon myrtle make a nice aussie stuffing.
    Fresh orange juice, a bit of rind, pepper, coriander and cardamom make a nice spiced stuffing (you can also then put orange slices between the skin and the breast, keeps it super moist)
    breadcrumbs with lime juice, garlic and black pepper, yum
    Huge pile of caramelised onions
    Big bunch of fresh herbs
    Oh, and student special - ripped up cheap bread (whatever the bakery will give you for 35c) salt, pepper, and a slosh of your favourite goon (aka cask wine, for the cultured)

    The options are endless. You can't really go wrong!
