Soak the whole chicken in salt water for at least 12 hours, preferably 24 hours, using 2 tablespoons of salt in enough water to cover the chicken.

After soaking, take the chicken out and set it on a rack over a pan to drain for about 30 minutes.

Use a kitchen towel or paper towels to dry the chicken as much as possible to ensure crispy skin when roasting.

Once dry, place the chicken back on the rack and tuck the wings behind the chicken.

Mix melted butter with various seasonings (not specified) and brush the mixture all over the chicken, including the back.

Optionally tie the legs together with kitchen twine for a nicer roast.

Place the chicken in the oven to roast for around 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken.

Let the chicken rest for at least 15 minutes before cutting into it.
