- 1 tsp. onion powder
- 1 tsp. thyme, dried
- 1 tsp. black pepper

Rinse the chicken inside and out. Rub the spices under the breast skin and on the skin of the whole bird.
-
Place bird breast up in a covered pot (roasting pan or crock pot) and bake at 325 degrees for about 1 1/2 hours. Bird is done when the drum stick meat starts to pull away from the end of the bone, or the juices run clear when you poke the thigh.

Enjoy!
