Making a roasted chicken for dinner only takes a couple minutes to get into the oven and makes for a beautiful and nutritious meal for your family. Audrey and I made you a video to show you what to do and below are the instructions. Light some candles…where is Norman Rockwell anyways?!?

Preheat oven to 450F.
Open bag over the sink so any drippings go in there.
Place chicken, breast-side up, in a roasting pan or pot.
Rub olive oil all over the skin so it will get nice and crispy.
Shake salt and pepper all over, including the cavity. Be generous with the salt.
I like to throw carrots around the base of the chicken, they get really caramelized and good. (optional)
Place in preheated oven and immediately reduce heat to 400F.
It's going to take about 15 minutes for each pound to cook, an hour for a 4 lb chicken.
If you have a thermometer, check that the temp is at least 165 in the thigh, not touching bone. If you don't have a thermometer and it looks done-ish, just cut it open and see if there's any pink.
Let rest a few minutes before cutting up, enjoy!

It's easy to roast potatoes in the oven while the chicken cooks. Dice them up with olive oil and s & p and garlic. Or even better, get baby ones that you don't have to cut. I throw vegetables like broccoli or green beans on top of the potatoes for about the last 15 mins. Then make sure you use the carcass to make bone broth for some healthy winter soup! And pro tip, you can roast a turkey the exact same way!

Sorry it’s in 2 videos, we are technologically challenged, haha!
