Rosemary Roasted Chicken
I made this one a few weeks ago now but am just posting it now, this was an excellent roast chicken recipe. I have made a few recipes of this chefs before and have not been disappointed and this one was no exception. I especially loved the marmalade glaze used to finish it off. The chicken itself was full of flavour and came out so moist and tender. To view more photos and read more reviews of this recipe please click here.

It was wonderful I loved the crispy coconut covered shrimp with the dipping sauce it was really good. I only made four Jumbo, Jumbo Shrimp, so cut back a bit on the ingredients.
