Holly has known TV Chef Joseph since he was a baby, but now it’s time for the ultimate chicken showdown. Will the humble Chicken Ding prove that you don’t need fancy techniques to make a great roast? Or will the chef’s culinary skills take the crown? Two chickens. Two very different methods. Which chicken would YOU choose?
