Parsley-Stuffed Chicken

Ingredients

 * 1 medium chicken
 * 1½ – 2 lbs sea salt
 * 4 tablespoons olive oil
 * 3 garlic cloves
 * 3 slices lemons, thin
 * 1 bunch parsley
 * 1 teaspoon dried oregano
 * ½ teaspoon dried basil
 * 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

 * 1) Preheat the oven to 350°F.
 * 2) Separate skin from the body of the chicken.
 * 3) In a bowl, mix olive oil, oregano, basil and salt.
 * 4) Rub ¾ of the mixture between the skin and the meat of the chicken.
 * 5) Rub the rest into the skin.
 * 6) Put slices of lemon and cloves of garlic into the chicken.
 * 7) Stuff the bunch of the parsley into chicken's rear, stalk first, press it in firmly so that as much parsley as possible would get inside.
 * 8) You will still have a healthy bunch of leaves outside, that's fine.
 * 9) Pour the sea salt onto the cooking sheet, spread evenly, like sand on the beach.
 * 10) Place the chicken on the salt (with the back downwards).
 * 11) Bake for about one hour or until the skin is nicely crispy.
