Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: A whole chicken is best for baking, as it cooks evenly. You can also use chicken breasts or thighs, but you may need to adjust the cooking time.
- Season the chicken well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. You can also add a marinade or rub to the chicken for extra flavor.
- Roast the chicken at a high temperature: This will help the chicken to brown and crisp on the outside, while remaining juicy and tender on the inside.
- Cover the chicken loosely with foil: This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out. Remove the foil for the last 15-20 minutes of cooking to allow the skin to crisp.
- Let the chicken rest before carving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite sides: Roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a simple salad are all great options.
