Ingredients
  

  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 whole chicken 4 to 5 pounds
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F. This high heat will help to crisp the skin and lock in the flavors.
  • In a small bowl, combine the paprika, dried thyme, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
