Notes

The extremely short cook time suggests that this recipe might be for a pre-cooked chicken or a very specific cooking method not fully described. For a raw whole chicken, typical roasting times are significantly longer. Adjust cooking time based on the type of chicken used to ensure it is thoroughly cooked and safe to eat.
