Roast chicken last night, made the best gravy ever. Although I still had some chicken stock in the freezer, decided to go with the trivet method.

sat the chicken on a trivet of red onion and carrot for roasting. Garlic and Thyme in the cavity.

While the meat was resting skimmed the fat off the juices, boiled juice up including veg and garlic, strained and thickened.
