Ingredients

  • 3 lb to 4 roaster chicken
  • Olive oil
  • Garlic powder
  • Kosher salt
  • Pepper
  • 1 lemon
  • 4 sprigs rosemary

Steps

  • 1
    Preheat the oven to 450°F.
  • 2
    Wash the chicken and cavity with cool water and pat dry. Set on a rack on top of a roasting pan. Drizzle the chicken with olive oil all over and then season with garlic powder, salt and pepper — don’t forget to season in the cavity too.
  • 3
    Cut the lemon into four wedges and stuff into the cavity – peel and all. Stick the sprigs of rosemary in the cavity as well.
  • 4
    Slide the chicken into the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Reduce the heat to 375 and roast for 45-55 minutes, until juices run clear.
