Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/Gas 4.
Combine the lemon juice, olive oil, herbs, seasoning, and garlic.
Sprinkle the chicken pieces with salt and pepper and brush the lemon mixture.
Place the chicken on a roasting pan and place in the oven for approximately 40 - 50 minutes, turning halfway through.
When the chicken is thoroughly cooked, juices will run clear when pierced with a fork.
Meanwhile place the carrots in a small pan with the butter, caster sugar and enough stock or water to just cover the carrots.
Bring to the boil, then cook over a moderate to high heat for about 12 minutes until the carrots are tender and all of the liquid has evaporated. Shake the pan occasionally to prevent sticking.
Serve the chicken with the vichy carrots and some garden salad.
