    Recipe Introduction


    Add some red potatoes, onions and carrots to pan with chicken. Also try cooking in crockpot.

    List of Ingredients




    2 (3.5-lb.) fresh whole chicken, cut up
    10 tablespoons butter
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 lemon, juiced
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
    7 sprigs fresh thyme
    1 teaspoon paprika

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 425°F.

    Place chicken pieces in a single layer in a large baking dish. Dot with butter and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle lemon juice, salt and pepper evenly over chicken. Place thyme around chicken and sprinkle with paprika.

    Bake for about 30 minutes, or until done*. Baste twice during baking time. Serve warm, directly from dish, spooning sauce over chicken.

    *Chicken Test for Doneness (per Washington Fryer Commission)

    No matter what method you use for cooking chicken, the most accurate test for doneness is a meat thermometer. Since chicken is never ready to be served unless it is done, always be sure it is completely cooked. Whole or bone-in chicken should reach an internal temperature of 180°F, and boneless chicken should be cooked to 165°F.
    Other indicators for doneness include:

    1) A fork or toothpick can be inserted with ease.
    2) The juices should be clear, not pink.
    3) Bone joints move easily.

    Serving Size: 10
