   Preheat the Oven

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

   Prepare the Chicken

   Rinse the free-range heritage chicken under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Place the chicken in a large roasting pan.

3. 3

   Season the Chicken

   Drizzle the olive oil over the chicken, ensuring even coverage. Rub the salt and black pepper all over the skin. Stuff the cavity with the garlic cloves, lemon (cut in half), fresh rosemary, and fresh thyme.

   Peel the carrots and cut them into large chunks. Peel the potatoes and cut them into quarters. Peel the onions and quarter them.

   Roast the Chicken

   Place the roasting pan in the preheated oven. Roast for 1 hour and 15 minutes, basting the chicken with the pan juices every 20 minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

   Rest and Serve

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