Roast chicken is a classic dish of Italian cuisine. Made with simple ingredients such as chicken, rosemary, onion, carrot, celery, olive oil, salt and pepper, this dish is roasted in the oven until the skin is crispy and the meat is juicy and tender. Perfect for a family dinner or lunch, roast chicken has a delicious flavor and pairs well with side dishes such as roast potatoes and seasonal vegetables. Try it and you won't be disappointed!
Season the inside of the chicken with salt and pepper, then tie it with thin white kitchen string
In a pan heat the oil, add chopped onion, carrot, celery and rosemary, and when the mixture has taken on color place the chicken in it and brown it over high heat for about fifteen minutes
Season, cover and cook over low heat for 40-50 minutes
If necessary, baste it with a little hot water
When cooked through (piercing with a fork should not release blood or pink liquid), remove the string, carve the chicken and serve it hot with buttered carrots
