1. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel.
2. Mix together the oil, Lemon & Herb Sauce, Zesty Voël and Piets-my-nou to form a marinade.

4. If using, place lemon wedges and rosemary inside the cavity.
5. Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight in the fridge for the best flavour.
