  3. Coat the chicken well with olive oil or softened butter and then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  4. Roast chicken for 15-20 minutes per pound or until an internal probe registers 165 degrees when inserted into the breast of the chicken.
  5. Remove from the oven and allow to rest for about 5-10 minutes to allow the juices to return to the meat.
  6. Use pan juices to baste the chicken, if desired.
  7. Garnish with lemon quarters and rosemary sprigs, optional.
