This is a staple in my home. I make it about every four days and use it on top of salads, sandwiches, stir fry and soups. When I am done taking all the chicken off, I use the bones, skin and drippings to make a yummy broth.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
1 whole chicken
Take out the innards and give to pets or throw out.
Place the chickens in a large baking pan.
Rub olive oil all over them.
Salt and black pepper them liberally.
Season with garlic powder and thyme or you can use any seasonings you like. Leave marinating for some hours.
Put in heated oven and cook 1 and 1/2 hours.
Set on counter and cover with tin foil for 20 minutes.
Enjoy! I eat the skin and all. You can make mashed potatoes and use the drippings to make great gravy.
