FAQs
Can I make this recipe with chicken breasts instead of a whole chicken?
Yes, you can use bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts for this recipe. However, the cooking time will be shorter—around 30-40 minutes. Keep an eye on the internal temperature to avoid overcooking.
Can I prepare this dish ahead of time?
You can prep the chicken with its stuffing and refrigerate it up to 24 hours in advance. When you’re ready to cook, allow it to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes before placing it in the oven.
Can I freeze the leftovers?
Yes, you can freeze leftover roasted chicken for up to 3 months. Just make sure to shred the meat and store it in an airtight, freezer-safe container. Reheat it in the oven or on the stovetop for best results.
