These are the ingredients you'll need to make the juiciest roast chicken recipe
of your life:
· Chicken: This recipe starts with a 3-pound whole chicken. If your bird is
larger or smaller, you'll need to adjust the recipe.
· Seasonings: This roasted chicken is simply seasoned with salt, black
pepper, and onion powder.
· Butter: Butter (or margarine, if you prefer) locks in moisture and gives the
seasonings something to adhere to.
· Celery: Stuff the chicken cavity with celery for subtle vegetal flavor. Plus, the
celery will release even more moisture as the chicken cooks.
Here's a very brief overview of what you can expect when you make
homemade roasted chicken:
"Roasting a whole chicken at home requires almost no effort and very few
ingredients," says culinary producer Nicole McLaughlin (a.k.a. NicoleMcMom).
Here are a few of her favorite tips for perfect roasted chicken every time:
· The most important thing to know, according to Nicole: "Dry skin is crispy
skin." Make sure you get the skin nice and dry with a paper towel before you
season the chicken.
· "Don't forget to season the inside as well as the outside," says Nicole, who
recommends also getting under the skin with butter for extra flavor.
· If you don't have a roasting pan, that's totally fine. Nicole prefers using a
simple baking sheet with a rack on top.
· To prevent the wings from burning during the long roasting process, Nicole
tucks them under the bird before sticking the chicken in the oven.
