Steps:
- Prepare the chicken: Remove the chicken from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking. If you need to cut a whole chicken in half, see the instructions in the blog post.
- In the meantime, preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius/ 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Mix the olive oil and all the spices. Add a little more oil, if necessary, to obtain a mixture that is easy to brush.
- Season: Place the chicken halves on the baking tray skin-side down. Brush the chicken generously with the spice mixture. Flip the halves and brush the skin all over, including under the wings and under the legs. Arrange them on the tray, making sure that they don't touch each other.
- Roast for 35-40 minutes and check if the chicken is cooked through. It should be golden brown and crispy, and the inner temperature should be 74 C/ 165 F. You can also check by piercing the chicken in the thickest part of the thigh with a toothpick; the juices should run clear.
- Crisp: For extra color and crispiness, you can turn on the grill function of your oven for the last 1-2 minutes of the cooking time. In this case, keep a close watch; you don't want the skin to scorch.
- Rest for about 5 minutes and serve.

Remove top skillet, flip the chicken and transfer to the oven. Cook until chicken is cooked through, about 35 minutes. Transfer to a serving platter and serve.
CRISPY ROASTED CHICKEN
This oven-roasted chicken is inspired by the Brathaehnchen served commonly in Bavarian Biergartens, small shops, and food carts. You can serve this chicken with many side dishes, but favorites are fried potatoes or spaetzle and a nice garden salad. Weiss beer doesn't hurt at all!

BAKED ORANGE-GLAZED CHICKEN
One of my favorite recipes! The combination of paprika and mustard powder really offsets the sweetness of the orange juice. I tend to eyeball when cooking, so if you cook more breasts or use a large pan, make extra sauce to baste with. I'll frequently use extra glaze when baking just so there's plenty to pour over rice once it's done!

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken halves. Look for halves that are about the same size so they cook evenly. You can also use bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts or thighs if you prefer.
- Season the chicken generously. Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. You can also add a little bit of oil to help the seasonings stick.
- Roast the chicken at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy skin and juicy meat. Roast the chicken for about 30-40 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Make a glaze for the chicken. This will help to add flavor and moisture to the chicken. You can use a variety of different glazes, such as a honey glaze, a barbecue sauce glaze, or a maple glaze.
- Baste the chicken with the glaze during the last 10 minutes of cooking. This will help to ensure that the chicken is evenly coated with the glaze and that the glaze has a chance to caramelize.
