This Oven Roasted Chicken Recipe is also perfect to bring to a friend in need of comfort food. For a grieving family, recovering friend, new parents or just someone going through a rough time.
It’s hard to know what to do or say when someone is hurting or going through difficult times. I’m not good at emotional stuff so I tend to act instead. Bringing loved ones a comforting meal is a great way to show your love and support.
Ingredients
5Lb Whole Chicken
5 Lemons
Fresh Rosemary
1/4 Cup Olive Oil
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/4 teaspoon Fresh Cracked Pepper
1 Tablespoon (salt free) Chicken Seasoning
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F
Slice 2 lemons and layer evenly on bottom of large roasting pan or baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and top with fresh rosemary.**
Remove giblets from inside chicken. Rinse and pat chicken dry with paper towel. Place chicken on top of sliced lemons, breast side up.
Mix olive oil, juice of 1 lemon, salt, pepper and chicken seasoning. Pour mixture over chicken and rub in to ensure entire chicken is coated. Sprinkle with more salt and pepper.
Cut remaining 2 lemons into wedges and stuff inside chicken along with more rosemary.
Roast for 1-1½ hours. Until legs wiggle loosely, juices run clear and/or a thermometer reaches 165° in the thickest part of the thigh.
*cover chicken with foil towards the end if it begins to get too dark (optional)*
Slice and serve chicken. Drizzle a bit of the pan drippings over chicken.
