At what temperature and how long should you cook a chicken on the bone in oven?

- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

- Prepare the chicken by rinsing it inside and out and patting it dry. Season the chicken inside and out with salt and pepper.

- Place the chicken breast-side up in a roasting pan and add 1 cup of water to the bottom of the pan.

- Roast the chicken for 15 minutes per pound, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

- Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving.

Here are some tips for roasting a perfect chicken:

- Use a roasting pan with a lid to help the chicken cook evenly.

- Baste the chicken with the pan juices every 15 minutes or so to help it stay moist.

- If the chicken is browning too quickly, cover it with foil.

- Let the chicken rest for at least 10 minutes before carving to allow the juices to redistribute.

Chicken on the bone is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for any occasion. You can roast a chicken for a family dinner, a holiday meal, or even as a quick and easy weeknight meal.
