Moist Roasted Whole Chicken

Features:
    Cuisine:

    A "roasting" chicken is usually larger than 4 pounds. A 3-pound bird is known as a "frying" chicken. This is the way to make chicken. The store-bought chickens are loaded with all sorts of chemicals that give the bird an artificial taste. Read the label on the package. If it doesn't say "all natural", it almost certainly isn't.

    Moist Roasted Whole Chicken, I found a version of this recipe online somewhere and used it to take a roasted chicken to church for a special sampling of foods you can get from ordering foods from Angel Food Ministries. Everyone raved about it and since I am going to roast one for home today I decided to add the recipe here too. This is a well seasoned bird which is cooked with high heat for the first 20 minutes then cooked the remaining 40-50 minutes at a lower temperature. This makes the chicken nice and moist and very flavorful. It’s easy and quick to prepare as well., A “roasting” chicken is usually larger than 4 pounds. A 3-pound bird is known as a “frying” chicken. This is the way to make chicken. The store-bought chickens are loaded with all sorts of chemicals that give the bird an artificial taste. Read the label on the package. If it doesn’t say “all natural”, it almost certainly isn’t., For roasted chicken do you put lid on while cooking?
