I tried an Ina Garten schmear for chicken last night and it was outstanding. This was intended for a turkey but I did bone-in skin-on chicken breasts for a trial run before doing the turkey next week. You might double the ingredients for a big bird.

3 garlic cloves minced fine
2 tsp dry mustard
1 TBS fresh rosemary chopped fine
1 TBS fresh sage leaves chopped fine
1 tsp fresh thyme chopped (I used dried)
2 tsp Kosher salt
1 tsp black pepper
2 TBS olive oil
2 TBS fresh lemon juice

Whisk up the ingredients in a bowl and place 1/2 under the skin of the bird and 1/2 on top. Roast normally with about a cup of white wine in the pan. You can make a sauce/gravy from the wine & drippings if needed. Mine didn't for the breasts. Nothing unusual about the ingredients but for some reason it had a great flavor. For the Turkey I probably will substitute a little Congnac + chicken stock for the wine in the pan.
