Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Clean the chicken thoroughly and pat it dry with paper towels.
- In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, ground turmeric, olive oil, black pepper, and salt. Mix well to form a paste.
- Rub this garlic-turmeric paste all over the chicken, making sure to get it under the skin where possible. This will help to infuse the flavors directly into the meat.
- Place the halved lemon inside the cavity of the chicken. This will provide moisture and add a hint of citrusy flavor that complements the garlic and turmeric.
- Place the chicken on a roasting rack set inside a roasting pan.
- Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes per pound, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C) when measured in the thickest part of the thigh.
- Once done, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for at least 15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a moist and flavorful chicken.
- Carve the chicken, garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve.
