Roasted chicken
1
whole chicken (about 3 ½ to 5 pounds)
2
tbsp vegetable oil
2
tbsp melted butter
1 ½
tbsp lemon juice
1
tbsp poultry seasoning
Rinse the chicken inside and out with cold water, then pat dry using a paper
towel. Mix the lemon juice, oil, poultry seasoning and melted butter until blended.
Rub the entire chicken with the mixture. Place the chicken on the low rack with
the breast side down. Bake for 30 minutes at 400°F. Turn chicken over so the
breast side is up. Use the extender ring to avoid over browning and bake an
additional 30 minutes or until the temperature of a meat thermometer reads
165°F in the thickest part of the thigh.
Optional: You may also roast potatoes while roasting the chicken. Use the low
rack for the potatoes (wrap in aluminum foil with 2 tablespoons of oil and your
favorite seasonings), add the extender ring and place the chicken on the high rack.
