Ingredients
1 Tyson® Fresh Young Chicken, 3 1/2 lb. or 1 Tyson® Fresh Family Roaster, 5 lb.
2 tablespoons butter, melted or 2 tablespoons margarine, melted
Cooking Instructions
1. Preheat oven and non-glass roasting pan to 375°F. Wash hands. Remove giblets from chicken; discard or reserve for use in stuffing or gravy. Baste chicken on all sides with melted butter, then sprinkle generously with salt and pepper to taste. Wash hands.
2. Remove roasting pan from oven. Spray a cooking rack with nonstick cooking spray; place rack
in pan. Carefully place chicken on its side on rack. (Use small baking potatoes on either side of the chicken to keep it balanced — when the chicken is done, so are the potatoes!) Wash hands.
3. Roast chicken 20 minutes. Turn chicken to opposite side; cook 20 minutes. Finally, turn chicken so breast is facing up; cook an additional 20 to 30 minutes or until done (internal temp 180°F) and golden brown. Let chicken stand a few minutes before carving.
Serving Suggestion: Serve with mashed potatoes, gravy and steamed vegetables. Refrigerate leftovers.
Tip: Allow an additional 10 minutes per pound cooking time for chickens over 3 1/2 pounds, and about 10 minutes less for smaller. The Young Roaster features a pop-up timer that indicates doneness. Stuffed chickens will require an additional 10 to 15 minutes cooking time.
