Paprika Roasted Chicken Recipe


INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 tablespoons paprika
  • 1-2 teaspoon garlic salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1 4-pound roasting chicken
  • ¼ cup butter, melted

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees F and pat the chicken dry with paper towel.
  2. Mix together the paprika, garlic salt and pepper and spread evenly over the entire surface of the chicken.
  3. Place the chicken on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. The rack is essential so the entire chicken gets crispy.
  4. Roast the chicken for 1 hour and 15 minutes. 25 minutes into roasting, reduce the heat to 350 degrees F and baste the chicken with the melted butter. Repeat the basting process every 15 minutes with the remaining butter.
  5. Once done, a meat thermometer should register at 165 degrees F and the juices should run clean. Remove from the oven and tent with tin foil for 10 minutes before carving.
