Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees F and pat the chicken dry with paper towel.
Mix together the paprika, garlic salt and pepper and spread evenly over the entire surface of the chicken.
Place the chicken on a roasting rack in a roasting pan. The rack is essential so the entire chicken gets crispy.
Roast the chicken for 1 hour and 15 minutes. 25 minutes into roasting, reduce the heat to 350 degrees F and baste the chicken with the melted butter. Repeat the basting process every 15 minutes with the remaining butter.
Once done, a meat thermometer should register at 165 degrees F and the juices should run clean. Remove from the oven and tent with tin foil for 10 minutes before carving.

Notes

Cooking a whole chicken doesn't have to be scary! This tastes better than a rotisserie from the store and can give you a great meal plus leftovers.
