Roast Chicken with Fennel Pollen, Meyer Lemon

I could eat roast chicken most any day of the week and be happy. It’s often a “Sunday Supper” around here. My darling husband says my roast chicken would be his last meal if he could choose it. Last week two fortuitous things occurred: my in-laws sent a box of Meyer lemons and Whole Foods announced a sale on organic chickens. A plan began to come together.

In the spice cabinet is a stash of Fennel Pollen from our new best friends at Pollen Ranch. My first introduction to Fennel Pollen came through Doc who found it was just the culinary find to bring me out of a funk. Now I love fennel pollen in so many ways. It’s great for chicken, pork or fish.
