Directions
Blasted Chicken!!!!!, This will be very brown and crispy, the juiciest chicken you ever ate! Simple and so good!, I watched this recipe being demonstrated on the Sara Moulton show and this site is the only one that comes even close to the actual show and not what I have been seeing in other recipe sites. The actual temp of the oven was 500 and the chicken was slathered in butter, salted, peppered and cooked breast side down for the first half of cooking. The reason: To keep the breast from drying out! This is a great recipe and will now try it with a 6 lb bird., We don’t eat a lot of chicken in our house big red meat-eaters!. I have made this twice now in 2 weeks, once with a 6.5lb chicken and then with a 3lb chicken. I seasoned it with the s&p, and some Weber’s Garlic & Herb Seasoning. I placed it breast side down, as stated….and left it alone in the oven. No peeking, no basting? I LOVE this recipe! I did buy myself a hot-lick meat thermometer last month to survive the Christmas ham, and used it both times instead of timing it. The 6.5lb took somewhere around 1hr 45 min, the 3lb about an hour. I take them out when internal temp reaches 175 deg, and it raises 5 deg while it rests for a perfect 180 degs. The kitchen gets a little smokey, but the chicken is fantastic!
