    I just made this and to be honest, wasn't expecting anything spectacular at first. But now that I've tried it, omg. I followed recipe exactly and my chicken came out so juicy and flavorful. I had a 4 lb somewhat plump bird, so I found that I had to add about 15-20 min more to finish cooking. Loved it and saving this to make again!

    Kittencal’s Best Juicy Whole Roasted Chicken, Follow this recipe and you will have the best juiciest roasted chicken on the planet, a larger roasting chicken may be used and this also works well with a small turkey with cooking times adjusted — plan ahead for best flavor if using seasoned salt the chicken should chill overnight if using white salt there is no need for chilling time — OPTIONAL get a lemon or two, use a fork and poke full of holes, then place into the cavity of the chicken, roast as stated, the chicken will be moist and have a faint lemon flavor , I just made this and to be honest, wasn’t expecting anything spectacular at first But now that I’ve tried it, omg I followed recipe exactly and my chicken came out so juicy and flavorful I had a 4 lb somewhat plump bird, so I found that I had to add about 15-20 min more to finish cooking Loved it and saving this to make again!
