The World’s Easiest (and best!) Whole Roasted Chicken
The World’s Easiest (and best!) Whole Roasted Chicken
I just got home from the MOPS International Convention in Dallas Texas. I shared this recipe with the audience and since then I’ve had a bunch of requests for the recipe. Well here is the deconstructed recipe for the the best Whole Roasted Chicken I’ve ever eaten that is so easy I now have it memorized and make it at least once a week.
My family loves it, and the leftover chicken makes a great topping for salads, or is wonderful in some tacos.
The only secret is to use a meat thermometer to get the internal chicken temp to 165 degrees – enough to be cooked, moist enough to eat right off the bone.
