Makes: 6 servings

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• Salt and pepper (to taste)
• 1 whole chicken
• 1 tablespoon olive oil (or canola oil)

Steps

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
2. Combine Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
3. Rub chicken with oil, then rub with spice mixture.
4. Place chicken breast-side down in Dutch oven or roasting pan.
5. Bake, uncovered, until internal temperature reaches at least 165 degrees F.
6. Let chicken rest for ten minutes before cutting.

Notes
