No-Salt Roasted Chicken Recipe Will Blow Your Mind (Only 4 Ingredients) by 30Seconds Food

Why will this chicken recipe blow your mind? Because somehow the simple ingredients make magic in the oven and produce the most flavorful, juicy chicken – without adding salt!

This juicy, succulent no-salt roasted chicken is seasoned with lemon, butter and black pepper before heading to the oven to bake. If you're using fresh herbs, add them now. Baste the chicken every 15 minutes with the butter for about one hour. Pour in the white wine and continue to bake until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.

If you cook a smaller chicken, be sure to monitor the internal temperature so you don't overcook it. The internal temperature should be 165 degrees F. Serve this easy roasted chicken recipe for dinner with your favorite side dishes, and you're sure to get recipe requests. The leftovers make a mean chicken salad or can be shredded or diced for recipes calling for leftover chicken.

Ingredients

• 1 whole chicken (4 to 5 pounds)

2. Put the chicken into a preheated 350-degree F oven and cook about 15 minutes. Baste the chicken with the melted butter in the pan and continue to cook, basting every 15 minutes, until chicken has cooked 1 hour.
