A classic roasted chicken served with greens and your favorite side makes a delicious and healthy dinner that never goes out of style. Be prepared to turn on your vent; the high-heat finishing may generate some smoke.
Ingredients
1 (4-pound) whole roasting chicken
2 teaspoons unsalted butter, softened
1 1/2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon ground coriander
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 shallots, peeled and halved
3 fresh thyme sprigs
1 lemon, quartered
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 °.
Discard giblets and neck from chicken. Starting at neck cavity, loosen skin from breasts and drumsticks by inserting fingers, gently pushing between skin and meat.
Combine butter and next 7 ingredients (through garlic) in a small bowl. Rub mixture under loosened skin, over flesh; rub over top of skin. Tie ends of legs together with twine. Lift wing tips up and over back; tuck under chicken. Place chicken, breast side up, on a rack; place rack in roasting pan. Place shallots, thyme sprigs, and lemon in cavity of chicken.
Bake at 350 ° for 45 minutes. Increase oven temperature to 450 ° (do not remove chicken); bake at 450 ° for 15 minutes or until a thermometer inserted in meaty part of leg registers 165 °. Remove chicken from pan; let stand 10 minutes. Discard skin. Carve chicken.
