1
Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, mix together olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper.
2
Marinate the Chicken
Rub the marinade all over the chicken halves, ensuring they are well coated. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator.
3
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
4
Bake the Chicken
Place the marinated chicken halves on a baking sheet, skin side up. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the skin is golden brown.
5
Rest and Serve
Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving. Serve hot.
