Roasted Chicken

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 1 hr 45 minutes

Ingredients
1 whole chicken (about 5 lbs.)
2 lemons, sliced into wedges
1 small onion, sliced into wedges
10 cloves of garlic, 5 minced, the other 5 whole
3 Tbsp. canola oil
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
1 Tbsp. Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper

Directions
Preheat oven to 450 F. Clean out the inside of the chicken and stuff with onions, lemons and whole cloves of garlic.

Pat chicken dry with paper towel. Combine parsley, Italian seasoning, remaining garlic, Canola oil, salt and pepper.
Rub mixture over all sides of chicken.
Place chicken breast side up and bake for 1 hr-1 hr 30 minutes, until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 F. 



Discard items from inside chicken.
Enjoy!

This is a great way to save money, it is so much cheaper to buy and roast the whole chicken than to buy pieces.
