    omg I am so sick of chicken too.... my husband found an amazing sale on chicken, and we have soo much in the freezer. I dislike fish, and beef is too expensive.

    Basic Whole Roasted Chicken Recipe

    By CHOW Food Team
    http://www.chow.com/recipes/30264-basic-whole-roasted-chicken

    INGREDIENTS

    1 (4- to 5-pound) whole chicken, neck and giblets removed from the cavity
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    Kosher salt
    Freshly ground black pepper
    1 medium lemon, thinly sliced (optional)
    Fresh herbs, such as parsley, rosemary, or thyme (optional)

    INSTRUCTIONS

    Heat the oven to 425°F and arrange a rack in the middle.

    Place the chicken on a work surface or cutting board and pat it dry with paper towels. Cut off and discard any extra fat hanging around the body cavity.

    Drizzle the oil on the chicken and rub it all over the skin. Season generously inside and out with salt and pepper. Place the lemon and herbs inside the cavity, if using. Place the chicken breast-side up in a large frying pan or cast-iron skillet.

    Roast the chicken in the oven for 15 minutes. Reduce the temperature to 375°F and continue roasting until the juices run clear and a thermometer inserted into the inner thigh (but not touching the bone) registers 165°F, about 50 minutes to 1 hour more.

    Remove the chicken from the oven and place on a cutting board. Let it rest about 15 to 20 minutes before carving.

    I have a great baked chicken recipe.

    -4 chicken breasts. washed and each sliced in half to have a 0.5" in thickness.
    -5 or 6 medium sized potatoes, washed, sliced into small circles.

    sauce:
    4 tbsp white vinegar
    4 tbsp vegetable oil
    2 tbsp mayonaise
    1 tbsp tomato paste
    salt to taste
    paprika to taste or sweet chill powder
    1 garlic clove

    Mix the ingredients together and cover the chicken and potatoes in a medium sized tray. Cover with aluminium foil and bake at 400 degrees for 45 minutes. Insert a toothpick to see if the potatoes are baked well. You can do this overnight and let the chicken sit in the sauce. I tried, didn't really notice a difference.

    My mom does this same recipe with chicken thighs and adds peas and carrots instead of potatoes. The sauce tastes really good. I make it once a month.
