So I'm thinking...a lemon...a little salt and pepper...how good could this be? WELL...it's AMAZING! I have never had a more moist chicken! I used sea salt for a little extra salty kick. I did put a foil tent over it the last 15 minutes or so. So super simple and DELICIOUS!

I thought I knew how to roast a chicken but I always erred on the side of caution and overcooked them. I got a beautiful 5# free range chicken and used this recipe. It came out great! I was nervous about not using liquid and having the oven that hot, but it works people! My family LOVED it! I used Ina's technique of quartering the bird (from her duck episode. Fan-tastic!!!!

Simple and delicious. The skin is crisp and perfect and the meat is moist and flavorful. The veggies are also lovely, don't forgo the fennel bulb, it is a treat!

I am a true food novice (hence the name "food newby" but I have grown to love food from all over the world. Roast Chicken is one of those basics everyone should know... well.... I certainly do now! I will say one thing... be careful with the "liberally salt" comment. I am still working on perfecting the skin (we normally don't eat it. But the meat is so flavorful my husband forgives the crispy skin error. Give it a try. We love it!

After seeing reviews claiming burnt veggies, we dropped the temp. to 400, we also added a few extra carrots. It turned out perfectly and was very easy to make, and the drippings made an excellent gravy as well. My husband doesn't like chicken and he loved this.

OMG! This chicken was perfect! It was moist and delicious! I added two cups of chicken broth to the bottom of the pan and it was the Best Roasted Chicken I have EVVVVVER made!

My dad and I had a great bonding experience working on the simple recipe for the first time. We wanted to do a simple recipe but have it have a great result. We went on vacation to friends and they had an amazing roast chicken. We wanted to use their recipe, but we never got it. As I was saying this extrodanary recipe beats my tast buds. I think this chicken was better than the one our friends made. As you can see, this was a great recipe and a great chance for a father daughter bond.
