Zest and juice of one lemon

1 Tbs olive oil

1/2 cup butter, softened

2 tablespoons of fresh rosemary leaves

Salt and pepper to taste

Mix all ingredients except for chicken and butter in a blender. Blend until smooth. Mix into softened butter. Rub half of butter mixture between chicken skin and meat. Use remaining butter mixture to rub on outside of chicken.

Place in oven a roasting pan to collect the juices.
