Roasted Chicken with Lemon and Rosemary

Ingredients

• 1 whole chicken, cut into 8 pieces
• 1 onion, cut into wedges
• 1 lemon, sliced
• 8 cloves garlic
• 4 sprigs fresh rosemary
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Directions

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).

Combine chicken, onion, lemon slices, garlic, and rosemary together in a large bowl. Drizzle olive oil and sprinkle salt and black pepper over the chicken mixture; toss to coat. Spread chicken mixture out in the bottom of a baking dish.

Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 45 to 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of a thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
