1
Prepare the Chicken
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the half chicken dry with paper towels. Rub the chicken with olive oil, salt, black pepper, minced garlic, and fresh thyme.
2
Pan Roasting
Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Place the chicken skin-side down in the skillet and sear for about 5-7 minutes until the skin is golden brown. Flip the chicken over and transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
3
Roast
Roast the chicken for 25-30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.
