For an extra layer of flavor, tuck the squeezed grapefruit halves into the chicken cavity along with a few sprigs of fresh rosemary or thyme. If you don't have seasoned salt, you can make your own by combining salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. To prevent the chicken from drying out, you can baste it with its own juices a couple of times during the last 15 minutes of baking.
