For extra flavor, tuck a few sprigs of fresh herbs (such as rosemary, thyme, or sage) under the chicken skin before roasting. If the vegetables start to brown too quickly, you can tent the roasting pan with aluminum foil for the last portion of cooking. The resting period is crucial for a juicy chicken. Don't skip it! Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked to a safe internal temperature. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the thigh, avoiding the bone. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Aug 2, 2023I found that 1 hour and 45 minutes with the foil on and 30 minutes with it off was perfect in my oven.
