Dinner Tonight: Herb-Roasted Chicken With Garlic Powder Recipe

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Coat small roasting dish that holds chicken snugly with oil and set aside.

   If using whole chicken, carefully separate skin from the breast and tuck thyme sprigs underneath. If using pieces, strip leaves from thyme and chop them.

3. 3

   Combine oregano, garlic, salt, pepper, and thyme leaves (if using) in bowl and mix well. Sprinkle mixture over the chicken and rub well to coat. If using whole chicken, rub inside as well, and stuff with onion and transfer to baking dish. If using pieces, tuck onion pieces amongst chicken in dish skin-side up.
