A Simple and Delicious Roasted Chicken Recipe

Who doesn't love a good roast chicken? I know it’s tempting to just buy rotisserie chicken from the grocery or from a Lechon “Manokan” on the side of the road (those options are both always SO good!), but it’s always great to have some roast chicken cooking skills up your sleeve. I’ve scoured and researched the internet on some recipes and ideas and while I didn’t follow any particular one to the letter – I did pick up some really helpful tips. I incorporated these tips into the recipe which I found really made the chicken not only flavorful and tasty, but also moist and tender and absolutely delicious! Read on for these snippets of tips and through to the end for the full recipe.

The ingredients are some of my favorites like herbs with butter and lemon and garlic. Now who doesn’t love that combination?

Tip : I’ve read on several sites that you should always season your chicken ahead. Even if you have not put the marinade or rub yet. It helps with making sure the chicken will be flavorful. It’s recommended you salt it a few hours before. As for myself, I’ve just put salt all over the chicken and let it rest while I gathered the rest of my ingredients and prepared for the next step.
