Taken from a clipping some years ago, unfortunately I can't name the magazine. If you're in Australia, it suggests using Tasmanian Heritage brand cheese.

CAMEMBERT CHICKEN
This is a different way of serving chicken. It goes over well at dinner parties, but is equally suited to a romantic evening. I think it originally came from a Valentines Day special. I have included the refrigeration time in the prep. Some roasted asparagus and new potatoes and you have a complete meal.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Rinse the chicken, then dry it very well with paper towels, inside and out. The less it steams, the drier the heat, the better.
- Salt and pepper the cavity, then truss the bird. Trussing is not difficult, and if you roast chicken often, it's a good technique to feel comfortable with. When you truss a bird, the wings and legs stay close to the body; the ends of the drumsticks cover the top of the breast and keep it from drying out. Trussing helps the chicken to cook evenly, and it also makes for a more beautiful roasted bird.
- Now, salt the chicken-I like to rain the salt over the bird so that it has a nice uniform coating that will result in a crisp, salty, flavorful skin (about 1 tablespoon). When it's cooked, you should still be able to make out the salt baked onto the crisp skin. Season to taste with pepper.
- Place the chicken in a sauté pan or roasting pan and, when the oven is up to temperature, put the chicken in the oven. I leave it alone-I don't baste it, I don't add butter; you can if you wish, but I feel this creates steam, which I don't want. Roast it until it's done, 50 to 60 minutes. Remove it from the oven and add the thyme, if using, to the pan. Baste the chicken with the juices and thyme and let it rest for 15 minutes on a cutting board.
- Remove the twine. Separate the middle wing joint and eat that immediately. Remove the legs and thighs. I like to take off the backbone and eat one of the oysters, the two succulent morsels of meat embedded here, and give the other to the person I'm cooking with. But I take the chicken butt for myself. I could never understand why my brothers always fought over that triangular tip-until one day I got the crispy, juicy fat myself. These are the cook's rewards. Cut the breast down the middle and serve it on the bone, with one wing joint still attached to each. The preparation is not meant to be superelegant. Slather the meat with fresh butter. Serve with mustard on the side and, if you wish, a simple green salad. You'll start using a knife and fork, but finish with your fingers, because it's so good.
Tips:
- To achieve a crispy skin on the chicken, pat it dry with paper towels before seasoning and roasting.
- For a more flavorful chicken, marinate it in the garlic, thyme, and lemon zest mixture for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- Roast the chicken on a rack set over a roasting pan to allow the air to circulate around the chicken and promote even cooking.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked through to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Let the chicken rest for 10-15 minutes before carving to allow the juices to redistribute.
- Serve the chicken with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad for a complete meal.
Conclusion:
This Camembert Roast Chicken recipe is an easy and impressive dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The combination of the roasted Camembert cheese and the succulent chicken creates a delicious and flavorful dish that is sure to please everyone at the table.
