Ingredients

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
1 whole chicken
3 teaspoons kosher salt, divided
1 package Tasty Hearty Spice Blend
1 stick unsalted butter, softened
4 medium white potatoes, quartered
3 carrots, chopped
1 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400˚F (200˚C). Grease a baking sheet with nonstick spray.
On a cutting board, pat the chicken dry with paper towels, including the cavity, then rub with 2 teaspoons of salt.
In a small bowl, combine the hearty spice blend and the softened butter and mix well. Rub the butter mixture all over the chicken, including under the skin.
Spread the potatoes and carrots on the prepared baking sheet and toss with remaining teaspoon of salt and pepper. Place the chicken, breast side up, on top of the vegetables.
Roast the chicken for 1 hour, or until the internal temperature of the thickest part of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C). If the skin starts to brown too quickly, tent with foil or reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C).

Categories Meat and Poultry Recipes Chicken Whole Chicken Recipes

Time 1h35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

½ cup dry white wine
2 lemons, cut in half
6 large cloves garlic
1 (4 pound) whole chicken
1 ½ teaspoons cold butter
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Pour the wine into a 10-inch cast-iron skillet; set aside.
Place the lemon halves and garlic cloves into the cavity of the chicken. Slide half of the butter underneath the skin of each breast. Rub the chicken all over with Dijon mustard, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Place into the cast-iron skillet.
Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), and continue baking until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Remove the chicken from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 15 minutes before slicing.

Tips:

Use a whole chicken: This will give you more meat and flavor than using just chicken breasts or thighs.
Season the chicken well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. You can also marinate the chicken overnight for even more flavor.
Roast the chicken at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy skin and juicy meat.
Let the chicken rest before carving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
Serve the chicken with your favorite sides: Roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad are all great options.

Conclusion:

This hearty roast chicken recipe is a delicious and easy way to feed a crowd. The chicken is roasted to perfection and is packed with flavor. The vegetables are roasted alongside the chicken, making them a delicious and healthy side dish. This recipe is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion.
