How to Cook a Whole Chicken
For a classic oven-roasted chicken, pat the bird dry and rub with butter or olive oil. Season generously with salt, freshly cracked black pepper, garlic, and fresh herbs such as rosemary and thyme. Add lemon and onion to the cavity for extra flavor.
Roast in a 375°F oven until the skin is golden and the chicken is cooked through. Cooking time will depend on the size of your bird, so use a meat thermometer to ensure the thickest part of the breast and thigh reaches at least 165°F, avoiding contact with the bone.
Allow the chicken to rest briefly before carving to help retain its delicious juices.
Make the Most of Every Bird
Serve your roast chicken with buttery mashed potatoes, roasted carrots, green beans, or homemade stuffing. Shred leftover meat for chicken salad, tacos, or comforting chicken noodle soup. When the meat is gone, simmer the bones with onions, carrots, celery, and herbs to create delicious homemade broth.
Bring home our Pasture-Raised Whole Chicken and enjoy the simple pleasure of a wholesome, home-cooked meal made with chicken raised with care at Fluffy Butt Farms.
