Whole Fryer Chicken with Vegetables

A whole chicken roasted over potatoes, carrots and onions in a cast aluminum roaster.

  • Prep 20 minutes
  • Cook 1 hour 45 minutes
  • Serves 6

The AlumaChef roaster does the work here — even heat all the way around the bird and a lid that keeps everything moist until you take it off to brown.

Method

  1. 1

    Season the chicken inside and out and rub the softened butter under the skin.

  2. 2

    Scatter the vegetables in the bottom of the roaster and set the chicken on the rack above them.

  3. 3

    Pour in the stock, cover, and roast at 350°F for 1 hour 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Remove the lid and roast another 25-30 minutes until the skin is browned and the thigh reads 175°F.

  5. 5

    Rest 15 minutes, then carve and spoon the pan gravy over everything.
