Nothing beats an easy to make and even easier to prepare roast chicken. We would put this Garlic Herb Butter Roast Chicken in the ring with any rotisserie chicken and it would win by knock-out, Mike Tyson style. Because the flavor is INSANE! It delivers crispy skin, juicy meat and makes an amazing dinner.
Discard neck from inside the cavity and remove any excess fat and leftover feathers. Pat dry with paper towels.
Pour the olive oil, melted butter, wine (if using) and the juice of half a lemon over the chicken and inside the cavity. Season chicken liberally on the outside and inside the cavity with salt and pepper. Sprinkle over the parsley.
Preheat air fryer to 400°F | 205°C for 50 minutes to start the preheating cycle.
Rub the minced garlic over the chicken, mixing all ingredients together over the chicken and under the skin.
Stuff the garlic head into the chicken cavity along with the rosemary sprigs and the squeezed lemon halve. Tie legs together with kitchen string.
Carefully place the whole chicken, breast-side down, into the pre-heated air fryer.
Cook for 40-50 minutes at 400°F | 205°C. Bast and flip half way through cooking time.
Remove from the air fryer, cover with foil and allow to stand for 10 minutes before serving.
