Ingredients for Roasted Chicken

Method

Directions for Roasted Chicken

1

Prepare the Chicken

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and place it in a roasting pan.

2

Season the Chicken

In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the chicken, making sure to get some under the skin.

3

Roast the Chicken

Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Baste the chicken with the pan juices halfway through cooking.

4

Rest and Shred

Once cooked, let the chicken rest for 10-15 minutes before shredding the meat off the bone.

5

Assemble the Tortillas

Spread a layer of refried beans on each tortilla, add shredded chicken, and top with cheese. Roll up the tortillas tightly.

6

Serve

Place the rolled tortillas on a plate, drizzle with your choice of Signature Sauce, and serve with Mexican rice on the side.
