Comment préparer Absolutely Perfect Roast Chicken
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. This is crucial for crispy skin!
- In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
- Rub the mixture generously all over the chicken, under the skin as well as on the outside.
- Place the chicken in a roasting pan and roast for 20 minutes.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C).
- Continue roasting for another 50-70 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165°F (74°C).
- Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chicken.
- Carve and serve, spooning the delicious pan juices over the chicken.
