How to Make Delicious Roast Chicken Or Turkey Cornish Hens Etc
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Pat the chicken (or poultry) completely dry with paper towels. This is crucial for crispy skin.
- In a small bowl, combine olive oil, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- Rub the spice mixture generously all over the chicken, including under the skin of the breasts and legs.
- Place the lemon quarters, rosemary, and thyme inside the chicken cavity.
- Place the chicken in a roasting pan.
- Pour 1/2 cup of chicken broth into the bottom of the roasting pan.
- Roast for 60 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 375°F (190°C).
- Continue roasting for another 75 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165°F (74°C).
- Let the chicken rest for 10-15 minutes before carving and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful bird.
- Enjoy your perfectly roasted chicken!
