CONVECTION OVEN ROAST CHICKEN (FOR TOASTER OVEN)
I replaced my regular toaster oven with a convection toaster oven a few years ago and I have to say it was the best thing I could have done. I have used this toaster oven extensively as it does help keep the kitchen cooler then using the big oven. I didn't have any lemons so used limes instead. I used a 5 pound chicken but a 3 1/2-4 pound chicken can also work here.

Steps:
- Place the toaster oven rack to the lowest position in the oven. Preheat the oven to 400°F on the convection setting.
- Remove giblets and neck from cavity of chicken, reserve for another use or discard. Rinse chicken with cold water and pat dry.
- Place a baking rack into the broiling pan (that is lined with foil) add 1/4 cup water to the pan and lightly spray the baking rack with cooking spray.
- Tuck the wings under and place the chicken on the baking rack pan. Clean work surface and hands with soap and hot water before continuing.
- Combine the salt and pepper. Rub half the mixture in the cavity of the chicken; then place the herb sprig(s), garlic halves, onion quarters and lemon zest in the cavity of the chicken.
- Loosely tie the legs together. Rub the chicken with the olive oil and remaining salt and pepper. Drizzle with the lemon juice.
- Place the chicken in the oven and roast at 400°F for 20 minutes, then lower the temperature to 375°F and continue to roast for an additional 12 minutes per pound longer.
- Considering my chicken was 5 lbs. I will roast it for 60 minutes. You will have to calculate the time according to your chicken's weight by multiplying 12 minutes times the size per pound of your chicken.
- The Internal temperature of the chicken should be 170°F when tested in the breast, and 180°F when tested in the dark meat.
- Juices should run clear.
- Turn off oven and remove the chicken to a platter. Let stand 10 - 15 minutes before carving (may cover loosely with foil if desired, but skin will lose its crispness).
- Bon Appetit!

Steps:
- Place the chicken pieces in a large bowl and pour the buttermilk over them. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.

- Working in batches, carefully place several pieces of chicken in the oil and fry for about 3 minutes on each side until the coating is a light golden brown (it will continue to brown in the oven). Don't crowd the pieces. Remove the chicken from the oil and place each piece on a metal baking rack set on a sheet pan. Allow the oil to return to 360 degrees F before frying the next batch. When all the chicken is fried, bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the chicken is no longer pink inside. Serve hot.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: For the best results, use a whole chicken that is between 3 and 4 pounds. If you are using a larger chicken, you will need to adjust the cooking time accordingly.
- Season the chicken: Be generous with the salt and pepper, and don't be afraid to add other spices and herbs. Some popular options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and thyme.
- Roast the chicken at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy skin and juicy meat. The ideal temperature is 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Roast the chicken until it is cooked through: The best way to tell if the chicken is cooked through is to use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature of the chicken should be 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken rest before carving: This will help to keep the juices in the chicken and prevent it from drying out.
Conclusion:
Oven-roasted chicken is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great option for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion meal. With a little preparation and effort, you can create a perfectly roasted chicken that your family and friends will love.
