Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Rinse the chicken under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels. Rub olive oil all over the chicken, inside and out.

  2. 2

    Season the Chicken

    Mince the garlic and chop the rosemary. Squeeze the lemon to extract juice and reserve the lemon halves. Rub the minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper onto the chicken. Squeeze the lemon juice over the chicken and place the used lemon halves inside the cavity.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Peel and chop the carrots, potatoes, and onion into large chunks. Arrange them around the chicken in a roasting pan.

  4. 4

    Roast the Chicken

    Place the roasting pan in the preheated oven and roast the chicken for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the juices run clear.

  5. 5

    Rest and Serve

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