Roasted Chicken Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Chicken

   Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Rinse the whole chicken under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels. Rub the chicken with olive oil, then season it generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and fresh rosemary.

2. 2

   Roast the Chicken

   Place the seasoned chicken in a roasting pan. Surround it with the baby carrots and chopped apples. Roast in the preheated oven for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C).

3. 3

   Cook the Rice

   While the chicken is roasting, cook the rice according to package instructions.

4. 4

   Prepare the Vegetables

   In the last 15 minutes of roasting, add broccolini to the roasting pan with the chicken and carrots. This will allow them to cook and absorb some of the chicken juices.

5. 5

   Prepare Spinach and Goat Cheese

   In a separate pan, sauté the spinach until wilted. Once done, remove from heat and crumble goat cheese on top.

6. 6

   Serve

   Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes. Serve the chicken with rice, roasted carrots, broccolini, sautéed spinach with goat cheese, and sliced apples.
