Hillary Clinton is Basically a Republican Chicken
I don't like Hillary. I really hope her pro-death penalty, pro-using force in Iran, pro-Patriot Act, anti-gay marriage, more of the same butt loses tomorrow.
But, she inspired a good chicken.
I started with a very large chicken because mom and dad were coming over and we like leftovers. 24 hours in advance I salt and peppered the chicken and put rosemary under the skin and in the cavity.
1 hour before cooking take it out and bring it to room temperature. I then stuffed garlic under the skin and put garlic all around it and in the cavity. I also squeezed lemons all around and put them in the pan too.

The preheated oven was at 400. Put the chicken in breast up for 20 minutes. Then flip the whole thing over, which takes some skill. Cook breast down for 20 minutes and cook breast up until done. USE A THERMOMETER. Take out when it reaches 175 or so.
My skin split open, so it wasn't beautiful, but it was tasty.

If you cook your chicken to an internal temp of 155 and let it rest 7-10 min it will be twice as juicy same goes for turkey. A finished temp fpr these birds is 165 and continue cooking for 15 min after taken from the oven. Hope this helps and tell Pete Hello
I did actually mean 165, not 175. Thanks for pointing that out. Of course, I pull it at 165 and let it rest. I'll try 155 on it next time. Thanks.
