Spice Mixture:
3 T paprika
1 1/2 t dried thyme
1 1/2 t salt
1/4 t cayenne pepper
Rinse whole roaster chicken (6-7lbs/~3kg). Pat dry. Tuck wings under legs. Tie legs together. Place in a cast-iron skillet. Rub with 1 TBS melted butter. Sprinkle with spice mixture (don't rub) Bake @ 375 for 30-45 mins until coating is blackened. Tent with foil. Continue cooking until a thermomether inserted in thigh reads 165 and juices run clear (about 1 1/2 hours). Let stand 5 minutes before carving. Pour pan juices into a cup. Strain and serve sauce with chicken.
This is a winner in our house!
