roasted chicken

Golden baked poultry

Roasted chicken is chicken cooked in an oven with dry heat, typically whole and seasoned.

The method produces crispy skin and tender meat.

It's a staple of home cooking and rotisserie counters alike: We're having roasted chicken for dinner.

The phrase often appears on menus and in recipes as a single lexical unit.
