Simple Roast Chicken Recipe

“My go-to chicken recipe for decades. High and dry heat (no veggies in there making steam!) it is SO easy and never disappoints. The crispy skin is perfect. I don’t truss because I’m lazy and I don’t ever remember to baste with thyme. While it rests I make a pan sauce by deglazing the pan with wine/beer/cider/broth/vermouth/whatever liquid I have, stirring in choppped shallots and once thickened, whisking in some Dijon mustard. You will not regret it.”

“Simple roast chicken is so satisfying. I’ve been putting an onion and lemon in my chickens but next time I’m trying Keller’s way.”

“a gorgeous go-to that is very low effort, high reward”
