Roast Chicken for TwoStep 1: Preheat your oven to 425˚F or, if you have ventilation, 450˚F, and use convection heat if it's available.
Step 2: Wash and pat dry a 3- to 4-pound chicken. Truss it if you
know how, or stuff 2 lemon halves in its cavity. Season it aggressively
with kosher or sea salt (it should have a nice crust of salt). Put it in
a skillet and slide it into the hot oven.
Step 3: Have sex with your partner. (This can require planning,
occasionally some conniving. But as cooks tend to be resourceful and
seductive by nature, most find that it's not the most difficult part of
the recipe.)
Step 4: Remove the chicken from the oven after it's cooked for 1 hour, allow it to rest for 15 minutes, and serve.
