Roast Chicken, with smoked pork and mushrooms

The intention is a chasseur flavour, heavy on mushrooms with a smoked pork note. It was cooked for a long while, leaving out my typical lemon!

Ingredients

Large free range chicken from from Willowbrook Farm at East Oxford Market.
Chestnut mushrooms.
Smoked belly pork lardons.
Two onions.
Heart of celery, chopped.
Two carrots
Thyme, sage, bay, three chopped cloves of garlic and a slice of ginger.

Very successful, served with cabbage and roast potatoes, parsnips, carrot and butternut squash. Note the hand cubed lardons and the heart shaped roast potatoes.
