Ingredients

2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
½ teaspoon seasoning salt
½ teaspoon mustard powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (3 pound) whole chicken
2 lemons
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Combine the seasoning, salt, mustard powder, garlic powder and black pepper; set aside. Rinse the chicken thoroughly, and remove the giblets. Place chicken in a 9x13 inch baking dish. Sprinkle 1 1/2 teaspoons of the spice mixture inside the chicken. Rub the remaining mixture on the outside of the chicken.
Squeeze the juice of the 2 lemons into a small bowl or cup, and mix with the olive oil. Drizzle this oil/juice mixture over the chicken.
Bake in the preheated oven for 1 1/2 hours, or until juices run clear, basting several times with the remaining oil mixture.
