1
In a saucepan combine oil, margarine, honey, lime juice, garlic powder, paprika and seasoned salt over medium-low heat, stirring until honey is melted; cool slightly.
2
Wash chicken then dry with paper towels.
3
Season the inside of the chicken cavity with seasoned salt (any amount desired).
4
Poke holes all over the lemon then place inside the cavity.
5
Using a pastry brush, brush the oil/margarine mixture liberally all over the outside of the chicken (save the remaining oil mixture to baste the chicken while cooking).
6
Prepare the chicken for the spit by securing together with heavy string if needed.
7
Place the chicken on rotisserie rod and secure tightly.
8
Sprinkle with black pepper if desired.
9
Cook at 400 degrees for about 40 minutes or until cooked through, basting with the oil/butter mixture while the chicken is cooking (cooking time will vary depending on the size of your chicken or turkey).
10
When the chicken has finished cooking, wrap completely in foil and let sit for about 20 minutes before serving (this is an important step to lock in the juices!).

Delicious!
