    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    Rinse the whole chicken inside and out, then pat it dry with paper towels. Place it in a roasting pan.

    Chop the carrots and potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Arrange them around the chicken in the roasting pan.

  5. 5

    Roast the Chicken

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

    Once done, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving.
