Ingredients
- 1 whole chicken about 3 ½ pounds
- 3 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 bunch thyme + 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 1 head garlic sliced in half horizontally
- ½ onion

- Pat the chicken dry with paper towel, remove the giblets, tuck the chicken wings underneath the breast and tie the legs together with kitchen twine.
- In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, salt, pepper and thyme. Use your hands to rub the butter mixture all over the chicken, making sure to get underneath the skin as well.
- Stuff the garlic, onion and thyme sprigs inside the chicken cavity.
- Place the chicken on a large baking dish and roast in the oven breast side up until the skin is golden brown and a thermometer inserted in the chicken reads 165°F, about 60-75 minutes.
- Spoon the juices from the bottom of the baking dish over the chicken and allow the chicken to rest for 15 minutes before carving.
