  2. Place chicken skin side up on a foil-lined baking sheet on top of a wire rack.
  3. Tuck the chicken wings behind the head.
  4. Pat the chicken super super dry with a paper towel.
  5. Cover the entire chicken in olive oil
  6. Generously season with salt and pepper on both sides
  7. Roast for 1 – 1.5 hours skin side up until cooked through, the skin is crispy and the chicken has an internal temperature of 165 degrees fahrenheit.
