  • Stuff the chickens, stitch the openings closed, and rub the skin with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Sprinkle with remaining thyme, wrap each chicken in five layers of foil, and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Open the foil carefully and reserve the juices in a bowl.
  • Halve the chickens with shears and remove the stuffing.
  • Serve the chicken over the stuffing, drizzled with the reserved juices and extra oil.
