 Easy Whole Roasted ChickenI love the simple things in life. Mostly because in my life…laziness prevails. But because of my lazy ways I’ve learned to appreciate simplicity especially when it comes to my food. Think juicy, ripe summer tomatoes still warm from the sun….sprinkled generously with sea salt. Is your mouth watering yet? How about a slice of watermelon….slightly chilled and dripping with juice? Refreshing. Or a whole roasted chicken with just a few herbs, some salt and lemon? Drool. And for some reason these are the things that impress me the most. A simple chicken dinner just screams Sunday family meal to me. I’m not sure why but for some reason I only roast a whole chicken on Sundays. It’s like a thing for me. Even though it’s not something that requires a lot of time or energy and it certainly doesn’t need to cook for hours. And yet….I have friends that are terrified of roasting a whole chicken. It’s baffling. My entire roast chicken recipe costs less than $9 to make. NINE DOLLARS!!! And it feeds us dinner….and lunch for days. The perfect way to keep your sanity during the school year, especially. This is, by far, the Best Roast Chicken recipe you’ll ever make. How To Roast a ChickenThis Simple Roast Chicken recipe is just what it sounds like. Simple. A handful of ingredients are used to maintain moisture and pump up the flavor just a tad. For this recipe, I am careful to not overdo it with the extra flavor enhancers since I like to use the leftovers in a few lunchbox lunches during the week. I stick with the basics…kosher salt, fresh ground pepper, olive oil, lemon, thyme, garlic. That’s it. The key to making sure those flavors are actually in the meat and not on the bottom of the pan is by rubbing it all under the skin. I use this same technique in my roasted turkey at Thanksgiving every year and it ensures that I have the juiciest turkey in all the land. Seriously, you should try it sometime. How Long To Roast A Whole ChickenDepending on the size of your chicken, roasting a whole chicken should take only about an hour. I like to roast my chicken at a 425˚F so that I have the juiciest, crispy roast chicken ever. It’s a higher temperature than most recipes but it ensures a perfect roast chicken without much fuss. A 5-6 pound chicken will take about 1 hour and 10 minutes to fully cook. Your chicken is finished cooking when an instant read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165˚F. For an accurate reading, be sure the thermometer is not touching the bone. If your chicken is beginning to brown too quickly, you can cover it with foil after the skin is crispy and golden brown. The foil will keep the skin from browning and burning, as well as, keep the chicken breast from drying out. If you want to roast your chicken at a lower temperature, be sure to follow this chart as a guide:
A general rule of thumb for my recommended 425˚ roasting temperature is 10 minutes per pound for the chicken to be fully cooked. Roasted Chicken vs. Baked ChickenRoasting occurs at a higher temperature, generally 375˚ and above. Anything below 375˚F would be considered baking a chicken. Both work, but if you’re looking for a crispy skinned whole chicken you definitely need the higher temperatures to render the fat and crisp up the skin.
