Method
step 1
Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Carefully loosen the skin of the chicken as above, then push the cheese under the skin and massage it down so it completely covers the breasts and is pushed down to the legs.
step 2
Sit the chicken in a roasting tin, drizzle with the olive oil, then roast, undisturbed, for 1 hr 20 mins. When the chicken is done, remove from the tin and leave to rest for 20 mins. While the chicken is resting, toss the tomatoes in the roasting tin with the chicken juices, then cook until the chicken is ready to serve. Serve the chicken in pieces with a few baked tomatoes, some of the pan juices, and a green salad.
