• 1/2 tsp. onion powder
  
• 1/2 tsp. thyme

2. Rinse chicken inside and out; drain well.
   
   
3. Rub spice mixture over skin and the inside of chicken.
   
   
4. Place in a resealable plastic bag, seal and refrigerate overnight.
   
   
5. When ready to roast, stuff cavity with onions. Place chicken breast side down in roasting pan.
   
   
6. Roast uncovered at 250° F (that's not a typo... it's really 250° -- see note) about 5 hours.
   
   
7. Baste occasionally with pan juices or until pan juices start to caramelize on bottom of pan and chicken is golden brown.
   
   






Final Comments


NOTE: Anything over 225° is safe as long as the chicken reaches an internal temperature of at least 155°, which this does, and more.
