1. 01

   Prepare Chicken and Oven

   Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Position a rack in the lower third of the oven. Rinse the chicken, then dry it very well with paper towels, inside and out. This helps the skin crisp up nicely.

   Arrange Aromatics and Chicken

   Place the apples, rosemary sprigs, 3 lemons (halved or quartered), onions, and garlic in a single layer in a shallow roasting pan. Season them with salt and pepper, then toss everything together and pour in the 1/2 cup of Raimondo Sicilian lemon balsamic vinegar. Season the chicken well with your chosen rub and place it breast-side-up on top of the fruits and vegetables.
