Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prep the Chicken

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

  2. 2

    Make the Herb Mixture

    In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.

  3. 3

    Season the Chicken

    Use your hands to rub the herb mixture all over the chicken, making sure to get under the skin where possible for maximum flavor. Squeeze the lemon juice over the chicken and place the lemon halves inside the cavity.

Vegetable Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Peel and chop the carrots and potatoes into chunks. Cut the onion into wedges.

  2. 5

    Arrange Vegetables

    Place the chopped vegetables around the chicken in the roasting pan. Drizzle with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Cooking

  1. 6

    Roast the Chicken

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

  2. 7

    Rest and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. Serve the chicken with the roasted vegetables.
