Roasted Paprika Chicken




Source of Recipe


Everyday Food


List of Ingredients




1 whole roaster chicken (6 to 7 pounds), rinsed and patted dry

1 tablespoons softened butter

3 tablespoons paprika

1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt

1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme


Recipe



1. Preheat oven to 375°. Tuck the wings under the chicken; tie legs together with a piece of kitchen twine. Rub with butter.

2. In a small bowl, combine paprika, salt, cayenne, and thyme. With dry hands, sprinkle chicken with spice mixture; don't rub. Place chicken in a cast-iron skillet.

3. Bake until coating is blackened, 30 to 45 minutes. Tent with foil; continue cooking until an instant-read thermometer inserted in thigh (avoiding bone) registers 165° and juices run clear, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove chicken, and let stand 5 minutes before carving.
