On occasion I will bake a whole chicken and then, since it is just my husband and myself, we will eat on it all during the week. It took me several years to be able to bake a perfect chicken. This recipe will surely become one of your favorites!
Perfect Baked Chicken
1 whole chicken, skin on
1 cup real butter, softened to room temperature
1 Tbsp. sea salt
1 Tbsp. ground pepper
1 tsp. basil
2 Tbsp. Badia Seasoning
Remove bag from chicken and place in a roasting pan with deep sides. Using your hands, rub the entire chicken, both sides, with the butter and place about 1 Tbsp. inside. Put the remainder of the butter into the pan. Yes, it sounds like a lot of butter, but your chicken will be juicy and delicious.
In a bowl or cup, mix sea salt, ground pepper, basil and Badia Seasoning. The Badia Seasoning is what makes this so good. You can buy it at Aldi or Big Lots, lots of places. Sprinkle the seasoning all over the chicken, on both sides.
Bake at 375 degrees for 2 hours. Every 30 minutes, using tongs, turn the chicken so that it bakes evenly. Your chicken will be golden and delicious!
Enjoy!
