Brown Sugar & Butter Roasted Chicken

I’ve tried this delicious recipe from How Sweet It Is twice now, and each time has turned out wonderful and tasty. Getting the chicken in the oven takes very little time and you don’t have to babysit it like other roasting recipes. What I love about it is how beautiful and brown the skin turns, with just the right about of crunch and salty pop. And, bonus, it makes you look like a rockstar in the kitchen…and it’s just not complicated.

Win. Win.

Ingredients: 

Whole roasting chicken

Layering some onion slices under the chicken would be delicious, but I’m not sure other veggies would hold up. The bottom of the roasting pan gets the butter/sugar run off and it would just be a gluttonous, greasy mess for any veggies.

I start checking the chicken at an hour to make sure the tasty skin isn’t burning, and to make sure it’s not getting over done.

Let rest for about 15 minutes before cutting.
