- Spray a shallow roasting pan with nonstick spray.
- Remove neck and giblets, and rinse chicken well.
- Sprinkle skin with salt and freshly ground pepper, rubbing additional seasoning inside cavity.
- In a small bowl, mix together rosemary, thyme, lemon zest and garlic.
- Using your fingers, loosen the skin and spread fresh herb mixture directly onto the breast meat.
- Sprinkle any remaining herb mixture onto skin.
- Place the chicken, breast side up, in the prepared pan. Brush with melted butter.
- Roast 50 to 70 minutes for a 3 to 4 lb. chicken.
- To test for doneness, insert an instant-read thermometer into the thickest part of the thigh, away from the bone.
