Re: how to roast a chicken?
20-25 minutes per pound, at 350. The package should have the roasting directions on it.
Rinse the chicken inside and out with cold water, pat dry. Salt and pepper the inside cavity. I usually add some onion, garlic and carrots to the cavity, and any fresh herbs I may have. I rub the skin with some olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Roast away.
I use a thermometor to make sure the internal temp is ok, I roast to 160 then let the bird rest for about 10 minutes before I cut it up, otherwise the juices run all over the place.
