Notes about this recipe

    "Can a forkful of roasted chicken meat, wild rice & soft potatoes actually be too rich"? is the question we asked ourselves while eating this and so this falls into the category of "glad I tried it but probably would not repeat as is". I think we would have been happier with less rice (and I only made roughly 2/3's with LOTS leftover), more potatoes (which were delicious) and maybe 2/3's of the mascarpone mixture (down from the 3/4's I made).

    Very good, I served with a green beans. Next time I would try this with just thighs instead of a whole chicken as our family prefers thighs to breast meat.

    I used less than half the butter, and it came out great. It didn’t have as much flavor as i would have expected for the work, but the rice was delicious, and the chicken was moist. I had to cook it for an hour, not 35 minutes. Next time i will make a buttermilk marinated roast chicken Thus way, rather than the mascarpone massage.

    We really liked this! My 3.75 lb chicken fit in my Dutch oven but not spread flat, so the cook time was an hour and twenty minutes instead of the suggested 35-45 minutes. The chicken was moist with a hint of the herbs and richness from the butter. I was a little unsure about the potatoes with the rice; but this really was a lovely dish.

    My kitchen is pretty cold this time of year so I tried to help the butter along for mixing by microwaving it. I don’t recommend doing this. The mascarpone mixture was usable but very liquids and I definitely could have made use of more of it had I not heated it to liquid form. Other than that, this was a really good dish. The chicken was moist and picked up a lot of the lemon. The rice and potatoes were great.
