Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

  2. 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.

  3. Place the chicken on a roasting rack set inside a roasting pan.

  4. 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).

Recipe Note

Roast chicken could not be easier - or tastier - than with this recipe. Lemon, rosemary, and garlic help to flavor this gloriously roasted chicken with crispy skin.
