By NicoleP

Ingredients

• 2 tsp italian seasoning
• 1/2 tsp seasoning salt
• 1/2 tsp mustard powder
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
• 1 (3 lb) whole chicken
• 2 lemons
• 2 tbsp olive oil

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F.

Combine the seasoning, salt, mustard powder, garlic powder and black pepper; set aside. Rinse the chicken thoroughly, and remove the giblets. Place chicken in a 9x13" baking dish. Sprinkle 1 1/2 tsp of the spice mixture inside the chicken. Rub the remaining mixture on the outside of the chicken.

Squeeze the juice of 2 lemons into a small bowl or cup, and mix with the olive oil. Drizzle this oil/juice mixture over the chicken.

Bake in the preheated oven for 1 1/2 hours, or until juices run clear, basting several times with the remaining oil mixture.
