Chicken on the easiest, best and juiciest way.

Whole roasted chicken.

We are talking about whole roasted chicken and the best way to get it juiciest with crisp skin. This is the way to do it:

1. Set the oven on max temperature.
2. Marinated the chicken if you wish. We used paprika powder and olive oil this time.
3. Put the chicken on a grid with a roasting tin under with some water in it.
4. Roast for about an hour and some. We use about an hour and 10 min until it has that golden brown colour. Turn them after about 45 min.
5. Serve with rice/salad and a good wine.

I don’t think it can be done any simpler. If you have an oven with that rotating grill element DON’T use it, the juice from the chicken will only drip off.

   We have had chicken breast almost every Friday since late summer and when I bought the hole chicken and we did this I did remember how more juicy the meat is. It is easy and tastes very good, you should try it!

   My favorite way to cook chicken is with a smoker using flavored pellets, which takes about an hour a lb of chicken, juicy and a great smokey flavor. JCs last blog post..Miranda Cosgrove Reads YouTube Comments

   Sweet! I know what I’m having for dinner tonight!

   That’s it? That’s all it takes to keep the juices in? Geez. I used to collect the drippings and make it into a sauce whenever I grill chicken (I use a rotating grill). But your method seems so simple and promising — I can’t wait to bite into a juicy chicken leg! Thanks!

    I love (aside from eating them!) the way the chickens were presented. Thanks for the advice on the rotating grill. That’s very useful.

    The blog title really says it all! Chicken at its easiest, juiciest, and best way. I agree with the rotating grill tip. Thanks!

    Yummy! Those pictures makes me starve.. I wish that’s my dinner later.

    That seems so easy to do! I always get frustrated with roasted chicken because I cannot achieve the brown crisp skin. I’ll sure give a try with your instructions. This will be great for our wedding anniversary three weeks from now.
