Instructions
To begin, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Pat your chicken dry with paper towels. Rub the butter all over every part of your chicken and then sprinkle it with the chicken seasoning.
Lift the seasoned chicken by picking it up by the body cavity and sliding it into your opened roasting bag (*see note). Seal the bag with the ties included in the packaging.
Bake the chicken in your preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for approximately 20 minutes per pound (*see note). It is done cooking when the internal temperature reads 165°F (74°C).
Remove the chicken from the oven and allow it to rest for 15 minutes before carving and serving.
Notes
Cooking times can vary based on whether or not your chicken was allowed to warm slightly (at least 30 minutes at room temperature).
If your chicken was frozen, make sure that it has fully thawed before getting started.
The packaging for the roasting bag says to add flour to coat the inside of the bag. However, since we are buttering our chicken it isn't necessary.
To store: Place any leftovers into an airtight container and store them in the fridge for up to 2 days.
To freeze: Wrap the chicken tightly and place it into a freezer bag before freezing. Allow it to thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating.
To reheat: Place leftovers into a baking dish and add some water or broth. Cover the dish with foil and bake it at 350°F (180°C) until heated all the way through.
