For an even richer flavor, consider adding a few sprigs of fresh rosemary or thyme to the cavity along with the celery and onion. If you don't have a roasting pan with a lid, you can tightly cover the pan with aluminum foil. Be sure to let the chicken rest; this allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful bird.

An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). (240-300 minutes)

Remove the chicken from the roasting pan, cover with a doubled sheet of foil, and allow to rest in a warm area for 10 minutes before serving. (10 minutes)
