- Stuff. Place your orange slices, rosemary sprigs, and smashed garlic cloves inside the chicken cavity.
- Oil. Transfer your chicken to your roasting pan. Then use a pastry brush or similar item to brush your oil over your chicken.
- Broth. Pour the broth over the entire chicken and allow it to run off to the bottom of the pan so that your chicken can roast in it.
- Roast. Place your chicken in the center of your preheated oven. Roast until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F and the skin is golden brown and crispy (uncovered, about an hour to an hour and a half). You can carefully baste your chicken, using the broth in the pan, as needed while roasting to help keep it moist.
- Serve. Once done, remove the chicken from your oven and let the chicken rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a juicy and tender result. Then garnish the chicken with pomegranate seeds or cranberries and extra orange slices before serving.
