Time 1h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 whole chicken
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 sprigs rosemary
3 cloves garlic, peeled
1 lemon, halved

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  • Pat chicken dry and sprinkle salt on all sides and inside the cavity. Sprinkle with black pepper. Pluck the leaves from 1 spring of rosemary and sprinkle on the chicken. Place the other whole sprig inside the cavity along with garlic and lemon.
  • Place the chicken on a roasting rack set inside a roasting pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
