Use this recipe to prep enough chicken to use it in wraps and salads all week; you can even cook two at once. To make Asian-Style Chicken Wraps, leave the chicken whole; if a recipe calls for shredded chicken, shred before storing.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 whole chicken (about 3 1/2 pounds), rinsed and patted dry
2 tablespoons butter, room temperature
Coarse salt and ground pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Tie chicken legs together with kitchen twine (tuck wings under chicken, if desired, for a neater presentation). Place chicken on a rack set in a roasting pan (or on a rimmed baking sheet).
  • Rub chicken all over with butter; season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Roast until an instant-read thermometer registers 160 degrees when inserted in the thickest part of a thigh (avoiding bone), 45 to 50 minutes. Serve, or let cool before refrigerating, up to 3 days, covered.

I love this recipe! The chicken is always moist and flavorful. I've tried other roasted chicken recipes before, but this one is by far the best.
