Directions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Place it in a roasting pan.
Rub the chicken inside and out with salt, pepper, and onion powder. Place 3 tablespoons of butter in the cavity. Spread the remaining butter over the outside of the chicken.
Insert celery pieces into the cavity to add flavor and moisture.
Bake uncovered for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove from oven, baste with drippings, cover loosely with foil, and let rest for 30 minutes before carving.

Recipe Note

Chef Tips

Dry the Skin: For extra crispy skin, pat the chicken dry before seasoning.
Butter Under the Skin: Slide butter under the skin for added flavor and moisture.
Higher Heat Option: Roast at 425°F (220°C) for 50–60 minutes for crispier skin.
Tuck Wings: Tuck wings under the chicken to prevent burning.
