Roast Chicken

This recipe, adapted from Food for Friends, is truly simple and calls for just 3 ingredients while your cast-iron skillet does the rest of the work.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 chicken (about 4 pounds)
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • Smoked Spanish paprika

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°.
    Pat the chicken dry with paper towels, and sprinkle with the salt and smoked Spanish paprika to taste. Set in a cast-iron skillet, and roast uncovered until the chicken is tender and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. Let stand 5 to 10 minutes before carving. Serve with roasted potatoes or vegetables.
    Note: Stein-Novack recommends the local chickens from Godshall’s Poultry in Reading Terminal Market.
    Serves 2-4
