- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon salt

- Mix until well combined, creating a paste-like consistency. Adjust the seasoning according to your taste preference.
- Pat the chicken dry with paper towels, which will help the rub adhere better.
- Rub the mixture all over the chicken, making sure to get it under the skin for maximum flavor.
- Let the chicken sit for at least 30 minutes, or refrigerate it for a few hours to let the flavors meld.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Cook the chicken in the oven for approximately 1 to 1.5 hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the juices run clear.
- Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for about 10-15 minutes before carving. This will keep it juicy!
