MOIST ROASTED WHOLE CHICKEN
I found a version of this recipe online somewhere and used it to take a roasted chicken to church for a special sampling of foods you can get from ordering foods from Angel Food Ministries. (http://www.angelfoodministries.com/) Everyone raved about it and since I am going to roast one for home today I decided to add the recipe here too. This is a well seasoned bird which is cooked with high heat for the first 20 minutes then cooked the remaining 40-50 minutes at a lower temperature. This makes the chicken nice and moist and very flavorful. It's easy and quick to prepare as well.

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 450 degrees before starting to prepare the chicken.
- Place the whole chicken into a medium sized baking pan.
- Rub the entire bird with the olive oil.
- In a small bowl combine the salt, pepper, oregano, basil, and paprika, then sprinkle evenly over chicken.
- In the preheated oven bake the chicken for 20 minutes.
- Lower the oven to 400 degrees.
- Continue baking for 40-50 minutes, or until golden brown and juices run clear.
- If your chicken looks like it is browning too quickly, Lay a sheet of tin foil over the top loosely and it will slow down the browning for you.
- Let the chicken rest in it's juices for at least 10 minutes before carving and serving. (This let's the bird reabsorb some of the juices and helps to make it even more moist.).

SLOW ROASTED WHOLE CHICKEN
Overnight marinading and slow-roasting is the secret to this flavorful tender chicken! Plan ahead the chicken needs to marinade a minimum of 8 hours or 24 hours. If you are not a garlic-lover then omit the fresh garlic in the cavity of the chicken. This recipe can also be done using a larger roasting chicken although cooking time will need to be increased, or make a couple of chickens, you will have two make two separate spice mixtures in two small bowls for two chickens.

WHOLE ROASTED CHICKEN WITH BACON
"Chicken and bacon are great in a Cobb salad, and they work just as well in this recipe," says Alex.

Time 1h40m
Yield 4 to 6 servings
Number Of Ingredients 6
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Prepare the chicken: Season the outside of the chicken with salt and pepper. Fill the cavity with the thyme sprigs and lemon wedges. Turn the chicken so the cavity is facing you. Put one end of a bacon slice squarely over the left thigh, run it over the breast meat and finish by covering the right thigh. Repeat with 9 more strips of bacon, slightly overlapping, so the thighs and all of the breast meat are covered. Then wrap one strip, slightly overlapping, around each drumstick.
- Cook the chicken: Transfer the chicken to a shallow baking pan or rimmed baking sheet fitted with a roasting rack and put it in the center of the oven. Roast for 20 minutes and then lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Cook until the juices run clear or the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F, 40 to 50 minutes. Remove the chicken from the oven and allow it to rest for 15 minutes before carving. The bacon should form a hard shell over the breast meat. Take care to use a sharp knife when carving so the bacon stays on top of the white meat.
- Finish the dish: Make a sauce by pouring the juices from inside the cavity (along with the thyme and lemon wedges) into the baking pan. Put the pan over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Whisk in the mustard, add 2 tablespoons water and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes to allow the sauce to come together. Strain, pressing down on the lemon wedges to extract all the juice, and season with salt and pepper. Discard the lemon wedges and thyme sprigs and taste for seasoning. Serve immediately.
PAN-ROASTED CHICKEN WITH PORT AND WHOLE-GRAIN MUSTARD
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
- Heat an ovenproof skillet large enough to hold the chicken over high heat. Add the olive oil and swirl it in the skillet. As soon as you begin to see slight wisps of smoke, carefully place the chicken skin side down in the skillet. Sear the chicken, undisturbed, while reducing the heat little by little to medium, until its skin has turned golden brown and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Carefully turn the chicken skin side up.
- Put the skillet into the oven and cook until the chicken is deep golden brown and the juices run clear when the thickest part of the thigh is pierced with a skewer, about 10 to 15 minutes, depending on its size. When the chicken is done, transfer it to the plate and keep warm.
- Pour off all but a thin layer of fat from the skillet. Add the port, put the skillet over high heat, and reduce until half remains. Add the chicken stock and reduce again. (If using BBQ sauce, you don't have to reduce.) Add the cream, bring it to a boil, and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in the Dijon and Meaux mustards and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. Return the chicken to the skillet and sprinkle with parsley and tarragon.

PASTOR RYAN'S HERB-ROASTED WHOLE CHICKEN
This recipe is from the Pioneer Woman's blog (courtesy of her friend, Pastor Ryan). You can roast more than one chicken in the oven at a time (if you have room) and freeze extra cooked chicken, making it a very economical endeavor. *Notes*: You can use dried herbs in place of the fresh, just be sure to use leaves (not ground spices), and use 1/3 of the amount that is called for. Also, the ingredients/instructions are what is required for EACH INDIVIDUAL chicken that is prepared. The chicken might be nice served with a vegetable and Italian bread, or atop Recipe #11808.

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 450 degrees while you pick the herbs from their stems. Chop the herbs and add them, along with the salt and pepper, to the canola oil; stir.
- Before applying the herb mixture to the outside of the chicken, take out the bag of giblets and discard them (if there is one), and fill the cavity of the bird with the aromatics. You won't be eating these items, so you can just give them a rough chop / slice / mash.
- Stuff the aromatics into the nether regions of the chicken. No need to tie the bird, but if the legs are sticking out far (which can cause them to overly-brown), you can put a slice in the skin, and stick the leg into that.
- It's important that your whole chicken be patted dry with a clean cloth or paper towel. This will help to ensure a nice crust on your chicken once it's finished.
- Rub the chicken down with your canola-herb-salt-pepper mix.
- Slide your herb-coated chicken(s) into that 450 degree oven for an hour to an hour and fifteen minutes until they are golden brown and have developed a delicious crust.
- The chicken is done when juices between the breast and leg run clear, and an instant-read thermometer inserted deep into the thigh reads 155 degrees F (I found 1 hour and 5 minutes at 450 degrees F worked perfectly for me in my conventional oven).
- Once the chickens have roasted, take them out and let them rest for 10-15 minutes before carving.
- Serve over pasta, or with any sides.

PAN ROASTED CHICKEN WITH LEMON AND WHOLE GRAIN MUSTARD
This is my secret for success with a small roasted chicken. It's skin will be mahogany brown and crackling, while all of it's meat, white and dark alike, will be moist and flavorful. You can butterfly the chicken yourself if you don't have a butcher that will do it for you. It's easy with poultry shears. Working slowly and deliberately, use the shears to cut along each side of the backbone from neck to tail and remove it. Turn the bird breast-up, spread it open, and flatten it with a firm blow from the heel of your hand. Easy Peasy, and mighty delicious!
