Chicken and Marinade
Method
Preparation and Cooking
Marinate the Chicken
Place the whole free range chicken in a large resealable bag or a dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is well-coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Roast the Chicken
Place the marinated chicken 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) and the juices run clear.
Let it Rest
Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute.
Serve
Carve the chicken and serve it with your choice of seasonal sides.
