Preheat your oven to 450 degrees before starting to prepare the chicken.
Place the whole chicken into a medium sized baking pan.

Continue baking for 40-50 minutes, or until golden brown and juices run clear.
If your chicken looks like it is browning too quickly, Lay a sheet of tin foil over the top loosely and it will slow down the browning for you.
