Perfect Roast Chicken

Submitted by: admin on April 10, 2020

6 servings

Ingredients

1 (4 pound) whole chicken
1 cup margarine, softened
1 tablespoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1 pinch dried rosemary

Instructions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2
Rinse and pat chicken thoroughly dry with paper towels. Mix margarine, garlic salt, black pepper, thyme, parsley, and rosemary in a bowl and rub the outside of the chicken thoroughly with the margarine mixture. Place any remaining margarine mixture into the cavity of the chicken. Place chicken into a glass baking dish.

Step 3
Bake chicken in the preheated oven until browned and the juices run clear, about 2 hours. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh, not touching bone, should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
