Vegetable cooking spray
1 (4-pound) whole chicken, giblets removed
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, divided
1. Arrange rack in lower third of oven. Heat oven to 350F.
Spray a roasting pan and rack with cooking spray.
2. Wash chicken and pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle
chicken with the salt and pepper inside and out, then
brush with 2 tablespoons butter. Place breast side up on
rack in roasting pan. Place in oven with breast facing
the back of oven. Roast 30 minutes. Brush with 1
tablespoon butter, then turn chicken on its side. Roast
30 minutes. Brush with remaining 1 tablespoon butter,
then turn chicken on its other side. Roast 30 to 40
minutes more, until an instant-read meat thermometer
registers 165F when inserted in thickest part of the
thigh, without touching the bone and juices run clear
when breast is pierced with a fork. Let stand 20 to 30
minutes before carving.
Roasting a chicken at home couldn't be easier. Follow this
simple method for the perfect roasted chicken. To save time
cooking during the week, try roasting two chickens, cutting one
into strips to use in a soup or in a stir-fry. Atkins - Fool-Proof Roasted Chicken
