Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Rinse the chicken under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Season the Chicken

    In a small bowl, mix the black pepper, salt, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika to create a rub. Rub this mixture all over the chicken, including inside the cavity.

  3. 3

    Add Aromatics

    Stuff the cavity of the chicken with the fresh rosemary and lemon. Cut the lemon in half before placing it inside.

  4. 4

    Roast the Chicken

    Place the chicken breast-side up in a roasting pan. Roast in the preheated oven for about 1 hour and 15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  5. 5

    Rest and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving. Serve with your favorite sides.
