It’s easy to make with only four ingredients! I’ve roasted many chickens in my time. Many.

Remove the giblets from the chicken and dry it the skin well.

1

Thoroughly salt and pepper the chicken both inside and out.

2

Place the herbs and lemon wedges inside and truss if you wish.

3

Place the chicken on its side in a roasting pan or a large cast iron skillet. Sit the butter on top.

4

Place in the oven and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from oven, baste the skin all over and turn the chicken on its other side.
