Ingredients

  • 1 whole chicken
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 sprigs rosemary
  • 3 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 1 lemon, halved

Directions

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

Step 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.

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

Step 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).
