Easy Roasted Chicken image

Use this recipe to prep enough chicken to use it in wraps and salads all week; you can even cook two at once. To make Asian-Style Chicken Wraps, leave the chicken whole; if a recipe calls for shredded chicken, shred before storing.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 whole chicken (about 3 1/2 pounds), rinsed and patted dry
2 tablespoons butter, room temperature
Coarse salt and ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Tie chicken legs together with kitchen twine (tuck wings under chicken, if desired, for a neater presentation). Place chicken on a rack set in a roasting pan (or on a rimmed baking sheet).
  • Rub chicken all over with butter; season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Roast until an instant-read thermometer registers 160 degrees when inserted in the thickest part of a thigh (avoiding bone), 45 to 50 minutes. Serve, or let cool before refrigerating, up to 3 days, covered.

I've never been a fan of roasted chicken, but this recipe changed my mind. The chicken was so juicy and tender, and the roasted vegetables were delicious.

This is the best roasted chicken recipe I've ever tried. The chicken was so moist and flavorful, and the skin was crispy and golden brown.
