| Yield: | 1 roast chicken |
Ingredients
- 1 (3 pound) whole chicken, rinsed and patted dry
- 1 grapefruit, cut in half
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- ½ teaspoon seasoned salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Place chicken into a roasting pan, and squeeze the juice from the grapefruit halves all over and inside the chicken. Drizzle chicken with olive oil, and sprinkle with seasoned salt. Cover with aluminum foil.
- Bake in the preheated oven, covered, for 45 minutes; remove foil, and bake until meat is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 15 more minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C). Remove the chicken from the oven, cover with a doubled sheet of aluminum foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes before slicing.

My new favorite roasted chicken! So flavorful! I marinated it overnight. I added rosemary, garlic and onion the marinade just because. I started it off breast side down. Halfway through I turned it over. Browning the breast. So juicy and tender!
Very simple yet delicious. Only thing I added was garlic to cavity and stuck one of the halves of grapefruit in too.
This recipe rocked!!! Could eat this all the time!!!

This recipe was awesome. I used chicken strips because i didnt have a whole chicken but my family really loved it.
It gave the chicken a nice tangy kick to it. Not bad.
