Would you like the perfect roast chicken?

Roast chicken is one of the Greek family's most classic and affordable Sunday meals, and most of us love to eat it in its traditional form. However, with a few helpful tips, you can take this classic dish to the next level.

Here are some ways to make your chicken really shine:

Don't cook chicken straight from the fridge

It's very important to leave the chicken out of the fridge for a little while, around 30 minutes, before cooking it. This ensures that the inside and outside of the chicken are at the same temperature so it cooks evenly.

Season generously with salt and pepper

Don't skimp on the salt and pepper. Use plenty of both for delicious chicken.

Use a variety of herbs

Use a variety of herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, and oregano, to give your chicken a more intense flavor. Take it to the next level by giving it a “massage” with a mixture of herbs!

Brush it with butter or another fat

To keep the chicken juicy, brush it with something fatty. This will give it an appetizing golden color and help it stay juicy. Don't forget to brush the area between the meat and the skin, since most people only brush the surface and forget those hidden spots.

Roast the chicken at a high temperature

If you don't want your meat to dry out, DON'T roast it at a low temperature for longer. Instead, roast it at a higher temperature for less time!
