Camila’s Roasted Chicken

Ingredients

  • 1 whole chicken, rinsed and patted dry
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Dash of poultry seasoning
  • Dash of paprika
  • 3 garlic cloves, peeled and roughly chopped
  • ½ tsp sea or Kosher salt (need a granular salt, not table salt)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Please prepare chicken in ovenproof skillet.
  • Puncture the skin of the chicken and using the knife, insert under the skin and gently separate the skin from the breast meat. 
  • Squeeze the lime over the chicken and then drizzle the olive oil on top.
  • Lightly season with poultry seasoning and paprika. 
  • In a mortar and pestle, combine the chopped garlic and course salt to get a paste. If you do not have a mortar and pestle, you can finely and carefully chop the garlic and course salt together on a cutting board until you get a paste consistency. 
  • Spread the garlic mixture on top of the chicken and bake until the internal temperate of the thigh meat reaches 165 degrees F.
  • Remove chicken, cover, and let rest for 10 minutes before carving.
