1
Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
2
Rinse the whole chicken, then pat it thoroughly dry using paper towels.
3
In a small bowl, mix the sea salt, ground black pepper, olive oil and the chopped herbs of rosemary, thyme, and marjoram.
4
Rub the chicken liberally with this herb mixture, making sure to season both the outside and inside.
5
Place your seasoned chicken in a shallow, flameproof roasting pan slightly larger than the bird. Ensure the chicken is breast-side up.
6
Put the pan with the chicken into the preheated oven. Bake the chicken for approximately 50-60 minutes, or until it's golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit when tested with a meat thermometer.
7
Once cooked, take the chicken out of the oven and transfer it onto a plate.
8
Let the chicken rest before cutting into pieces and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more succulent bird.
