Perfect roast chicken

We love roast chicken for dinner and our default is beer can chicken. You can grill it or bake in the oven and it's as simple as placing the chicken on a beer can and adding some seasoning. However, sometimes we don't have beer on hand (imagine that) and have to go another route. We had this for dinner Sunday night and accompanied it with green beans and mashed potatoes. It was so delicious we both had seconds!!!

Ingredients:
1/2 tsp rosemary
1/2 tsp thyme
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp parsley
4-6 basil leaves (we used some from our garden)
1/4 tsp sage
2 tbsp olive oil

Directions:
Wash and pat dry your chicken.
Cover it inside and out with olive oil.
Sprinkles seasoning equally all over chicken and feel free to season more if desired.
Bake at 350 about 20 mins a pound. Mine was a little over five pounds and I cooked it for an hour and 45 mins.
Serve with sides and enjoy!!!!!
