📝 Preparation Steps
1
Start by preheating the oven to 375 degrees F. Remove any gizzards from the inside of the chicken (if applicable); then place the chicken breast side up in a roasting pan. (You can use the rack, just place in the pan by itself or you can use a Dutch oven.)
2
Combine the EVOO and cajun seasoning in a small bowl; then brush it on top of the chicken. (Make sure you get in between the leg and wing sections). Place the pan in the oven and roast approximately ⏱️ 20 minutes per pound. (A 6-pound chicken takes approximately ⏱️ 1 hour ⏱️ 50 minutes).

Insert a meat thermometer in between the leg section and the breast meat to check for doneness. The chicken is done when it reaches 180 degrees F. Allow to rest for ⏱️ 10 minutes before carving.
