I love how easy this recipie is, my husband hates chicken and he loves it! I make gravy from the drippings he calls it sweet gravy. I make mine in a oven bag, and it works well. I don't put any vegitables in I just do the chicken, and I don't have any allspice I just use what I have. I works beautifully. I am trying this recipie on a test turkey to see if I will do it for thanksgiving, I will let you know.

I was skeptical at first because the spices seemed odd for a chicken, but I wanted to try something different so I gave this recipe a shot. It was DELICIOUS. I did double the recipe for about a 4lb chicken and roasted it in a pan for about 2 hours. I can't tell you how good it was, there isn't any left! I will definately make this recipe again!!

This was my first time making a whole chicken, and it was AMAZING! My husband raved about it. Like others, I also stuffed it with an onion. Thanks so much for a great recipe!

Excellent - the chicken was so tender but I thought that there needed more spices and the cook time was not long enough. Inorder to have the skin brown up nicely, I rubbed butter on the bird before adding the seasonings. Also, I thickly sliced (about a 1/2 inch) some potatoes and placed it in the bottom of the pan. I also dissolved a chicken bouillon cube in about a cup of water and poured it over the potatoes before I put on the rack with the chicken. I added more of the spices and added some cayanne pepper as well. I put more garlic in the bird but I also stuffed it with quartered onions. The remaining onions were placed next to the chicken and they also got a great flavor.

Wonderful bird! I doubled the spices like I had read on other reviews... it was a bit overwhelming, but still SUPER delicious. Next time, I won't double the spices... I'll make it just as it is called for. Still a 5 out of 5 star rating!

I decided to try this recipe only because of the reviews. I thought the spices are for ham and not for chicken. My gosh it wat interestingly very delicious. I Tripled the spices except used 1/8 tsp less of the cloves and I stuck and onion in the cavity and sprinkled garlic powder inside and outside the bird. This will be made again and again.

I loved the flavors. I now wish I'd done what other commenters suggested and doubled the spices. I also added an onion to the garlic inside the chicken. I covered the chicken loosely with foil once it was brown and crispy looking enough. I needed to cook my 4lb chicken for an extra 15-20 minutes. The chicken was wonderfully juicy and tender, the skin crisp. Yum!

I roasted this chicken for a little over and hour, excatly following the directions and the chicken wasn't cooked! I was having family over for dinner and I only ended up serving the chicken breast because it done but the thighs and legs were still uncooked. I don't know what went wrong. The spices for the chicken are very good and I will try this again just cook it for a lot longer then suggested.

Excellent. The chicken was so tender and juicy. I didn't have time to let the spices sit so I just threw them on the thawed chicken and roasted per the recipe. Would use this again.

I made this today for Rosh Hashanah and OMG(gosh)it was soooooooooo great!!! I didn't do veggies under it - I just put some water in the bottom of the pan. Yesterday I soaked the whole chicken in a bath of 1/4 c. sugar and 2 Tbsp salt for about 4 hours to moisten it (this helps chicken a lot), then I let it sit in the fridge overnight with double the spice rub under and on top of the skin. This was the most delicious roasted chicken I have ever had, and I will make this all the time now! Just..... wow.

I used a 7.5lb oven stuffer roaster, and was surprised how quickly it cooked. I just did 15 min at 500, 15 at 450, and an hour and a half at 425, although it was probably done after only an hour. The meat was moist, but mostly just tasted of garlic. I doubled the spices but didn't have time to let it sit overnight and didn't put them under the skin. My husband said the skin was good, but it was getting black so I covered it with foil after 20 minutes at 425. My problem was the same some other reviewers had- a smoky, burning roasting pan. I kept adding water to the bottom of the pan, which seemed to help, but my roasting pan is probably pretty burnt up. Not sure how else to get rid of that problem, short of cooking veggies underneath.

I made this tonight for my family of five. I used a 4.5 lb chicken. I marinated it in the rub (doubled the spices including the salt)... rubbed it inside and out and under the skin... sat in a ziplock bag for about 5 hours. Tucked orange and onion inside the cavity. In the bottom of the roast pan I put sweet potatoes, potatoes, celery, red onion, and carrot sprinkled with garlic salt. I added a bit of water to avoid the smoking problem... there was none. The rack I used to place the chicken in stood above the pan, and the drippings fell onto the veggies. I tented the chicken with foil for the last 30 minutes. I made the chimichurri to go on the side... dipped Hawaiian rolls into it along with offering it as a condiment to the chicken. My family loved it! Oh, my GOSH! I spent $3 on the chicken itself... tasted like 4-star restaurant cuisine. Thank you!

My husband said this was the best chicken he'd ever tasted and i agree.....it was!!! I used all kinds of veggies on the bottom of the roasting pan and let them cook in the drippings. Wow!!! It doesn't even need to marinate. Putting the seasonings under the skin was an awsome suggestion. I put sweet vidalia onion AND freshly crushed garlic inside the bird. Also, cooking the chicken breast side down is brilliant!! All the juices seep right into the meat. Absolutely scrumcious! Thanks.
