  • 2 tablespoons olive oil - 8.0 tsp
  • Zest and juice of 1 lemon - 1.5 l
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced - 6.7 box
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped - 6.4 mg
  • 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped - 6.6 pinch
  • 1 teaspoon salt - 6.1 whole
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper - 7.9 tsp
  • 1 lemon, halved - 1.5 inch
  • 1 onion, quartered - 7.0 g

Cooking Steps

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare a roasting pan by lining it with aluminum foil.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper.

Step 3

Rinse the chicken inside and out and pat it dry with paper towels. Place the chicken in the prepared roasting pan.

Step 4

Rub the lemon herb mixture all over the chicken, making sure to get some under the skin of the breast and thighs.

Step 5

Stuff the cavity of the chicken with the halved lemon and onion quarters.

Step 6

Roast the chicken for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Baste the chicken with pan juices every 20 minutes to keep it moist.

Step 7

Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving and serving.

This recipe is a game-changer! The chicken was so tender and flavorful, and the combination of lemon and herbs is just perfect. Definitely a new family favorite!

Charlie Brown3

It was good, but I found the chicken skin wasn't as crispy as I'd hoped. Maybe I didn't cook it long enough. The flavor was nice, though.

Sam Lewis4

Good recipe, very straightforward and tasty. I added some vegetables around the chicken for a complete meal. Would recommend.
