Lemon and Herb Roasted Chicken

• 1 whole Roasting Chicken
• 1 whole Lemon, Quartered
• 1 head Garlic, Halved
• 1 whole Small Onion, Quartered
• Olive Oil
• Herbs, Fresh Or Dried (I Like Thyme, Rosemary, Sage, Basil, And Or Parsley)
• Lemon Pepper
• Old Bay Seasoning
• Salt And Freshly Ground Pepper

1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
2. Clean your chicken and rinse it inside and out with cold water.
3. Place in a roasting pan and pat dry with paper towels.
4. Place your quartered onion, garlic, and lemon inside the chicken.
5. What will not fit inside can be placed around the chicken in the dish, plus, a sprig of rosemary is good, too.
6. Drizzle some olive oil all over the top.
7. Next, sprinkle generously with all of your seasonings and herbs.
8. Rub into the skin.
9. Now, pop it in the oven for about 1 hour.
10. I do not cover mine, simply because I like the skin to get a little crispy.
11. There should be plenty of fat to keep your chicken moist throughout the cooking process.
12. Once the hour is up, I turn the oven down to about 350 degrees.
13. Bake for another 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until the chicken is done.
14. (I also like to baste it a couple of times through the baking process so that all of the wonderful flavors marry.)
15. Once the chicken is done, remove from the oven and allow it to sit for 15 minutes so that the juices dont leak and the meat doesnt dry out.
16. The meat should literally come off the bone.
17. Enjoy!
