Za'atar Honey Roasted Chicken
This roast chicken is easy as can be. Za'atar and honey gives a great texture and flavor to the skin, and the garlic and lemon perfume the meat.

1 whole chicken (about 3 pounds)
Olive oil
Salt
Pierre Poivre or ground black pepper
1 Tbsp honey
4 garlic cloves
1 lemon cut in quarters

Place the lemon and garlic around the chicken.

Increase the temperature to 400°F and roast for another 15 to 20 minutes, until well browned.

The chicken is great with tahini sauce (try adding some of the roasted garlic and lemon to the sauce) and a simple cucumber salad.
