Easy Oven Roasted Chicken

When whole chickens are on sale, I always get a few and we have this for dinner one night, then I use the leftovers for a casserole or salad the next. Totally good and inexpensive (and easy!)

1 whole frying chicken
garlic salt
seasoned salt
lemon pepper

1. Rinse chicken with cold water and remove giblets from inside. Lay chicken, breast side up, in sink.

2. Sprinkle seasonings generously over chicken (in sink). Lift chicken and place, breast-side down, in baking pot (one that had a lid). Season the back side. Cover with lid. (I use a dutch oven that is big enough for the chicken)

3. Bake chicken for about 30 minutes per pound at 325 degrees.

4. You can temp it, or I cook it until the drumstick pulls out- then everything is pretty much falling off the bone.
