Time 1h50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 whole chicken, giblets removed
3 tablespoons Himalayan pink salt
1 ½ tablespoons ground black pepper, divided
3 stalks celery, halved
1 tablespoon olive oil, or to taste
1 tablespoon kosher sea salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Place chicken in a large baking dish. Spread pink salt and 1 tablespoon pepper evenly inside the cavity. Stuff the cavity with celery.
  • Coat chicken skin with olive oil. Sprinkle with remaining pepper and kosher salt.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until the juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Cover chicken with aluminum foil and allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving.
