- Arrange four to six lemon slices under the skin on the breast and thighs. Tuck wing tips behind the back.
- Poke additional holes in top of the empty can with a can opener. Pour the wine into the can. Holding the chicken with legs pointed down, lower chicken over the can so it fills the body cavity. Place chicken over drip pan.
