Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine paprika, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder. Add 1 teaspoon salt and ½ teaspoon pepper (more or less to taste) and mix well.
- To prepare the chicken, dab the skin dry with paper towels.
- Rub the outside of the chicken with olive oil and season generously with the spice mixture.
- Gently fold the wings behind the chicken. Using kitchen twine, tie the legs together. Ensure the cavity is empty.
- Center the chicken on a rotisserie spit. If using a grill rotisserie, preheat to medium heat, 350°F. (see notes for oven directions).
- Cook chicken for 18-22 minutes per pound, or until the chicken reaches 165°F on a meat thermometer. A 3.5lb chicken will cook for 60-80 minutes.
- Once the chicken has reached the right temperature, turn off the heat and allow the chicken to rotate for 15 minutes without heat.
- Remove from the rotisserie and serve.
