Ingredients

Directions

  1. Heat the oven to 425 F.
  2. Pat the chicken very dry, rub it with butter, and salt it inside and out.
  3. Roast breast side up in a skillet or pan for 60 to 75 minutes until the thigh reaches 165 F.
  4. Rest 15 minutes before carving.
Cristina's tip: Salt the chicken the night before and leave it uncovered in the fridge for the crispiest skin.
