1
Prepare the Chicken
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Rinse the chicken halves under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
2
Marinate the Chicken
In a bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the chicken halves, ensuring they are well coated.
3
Roast the Chicken
Place the chicken halves in a roasting pan, skin side up, and roast in the preheated oven for about 45-55 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the skin is golden brown and crispy.
4
Rest and Serve
Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving. Cut into pieces and serve with your choice of two sides.
