  Roasted Chicken 

Roasted chicken is a classic and delicious dish that is loved by many people around the world. It is made by cooking a whole chicken in the oven after it has been seasoned and coated in oil or butter. Roasting the chicken helps to crisp up the skin and lock in the juices, resulting in tender and flavorful meat. Roasted chicken can be enjoyed as a main dish or used as a base for soups, stews, and salads. It is a versatile and affordable meal that is perfect for any occasion, from a family dinner to a holiday feast.
