Omg! I will always use this recipe. I added about a cup of water though to the bottom of the pan. And I didn't have celery so skipped it but overall it still was delicious. My husband loved the crispy skin. yum!

It really turned out juicy! I had my doubts but it really worked. The flavor was fantastic. The skin looked so dry when I took it out of the over. The final step of basting it and letting it sit was the key to the excellent result. I will use this technique from now on!

I don't know why this works, but it just does! I made it as directed the first time because I think that's the only fair way to rate. Loved it! Then made it my own- brine with herbs and garlic overnight, then roast with extra herbs and spices as preferred. Excellent and a family favorite!

The best recipe I've tried for a 'plain' roast chicken that just capitalizes on its own chickeny goodness! Sure, there are some great roast chicken recipes out there that include lemons or garlic or other strong flavors, but this just makes the most of the chicken as it is. The most moist and tender chicken I've cooked to date, and the husband went back for seconds - a rare event! This will be a keeper.

I didn't change anything. It was very easy, and moist. I'm known for my chicken-drying talent, so this is great for me. I didn't give it five stars because it is basically tasteless. I'd say some garlic or something would help. I will definitely make this again. Oh, and the skin was very crispy on mine.

I made this chicken exactly as the recipe stated and it was amazing! The most juicy chicken I've ever seen. Even the leftover white meat is still incredibly moist and tender. This is my new go-to chicken recipe!

This was probably the fastest, easiest oven roasted chicken I have ever made. The only reason why it got 4 stars instead of 5 is because I was expecting a crispy skin. Mine browned, but definately wasn't what I was expecting. Tasted great. Ran out of onion powder and substituted minced dried onion. Tasted amazing still! Next time I'll add a twig of rosemary inside with the celery! Good recipe!

This was my first time preparing a chicken like this. I followed the direction exactly except I didn't use celery because I normally don't keep it on hand, but I would be willing to use it next time. My husband said this is a keeper! I highly recommend this recipe, make it as is!

This was much easier than any roasted chicken I've made before ~ and turned out SO tasty! I followed the recipe, except for cutting back on the salt, for health reasons.

This recipe is so simple & easy. The chicken came out perfectly and SO juicy. The only changes I made were using butter and adding an onion to the cavity w/ the celery. This one is a keeper!

Very juicy and delicious! Easy to make and kids love it! I made 2 at the same time being we have a large family and I cooked it for 1 1/2 hours. I used 1/2 stick butter on the inside and 1/2 stick butter on the outside of each chicken. I am really glad I found this recipe. Nice change of pace for us. Try using your left over chicken in chicken salad.. VERY GOOD!! YUMMMM! Thank you for sharing!

Very good, simple and very moist even the next day. I did as another said and put the butter between the skin and meat. Everything else the same.

I'll say four because I had a few problems with it,well,my son flat out didn't like it. And really the breast part got done but not the legs,I left it on for the hour and 15 minutes like it says to but I don't know,maybe the temp should be higher.
