How can I prepare a crispy roasted whole chicken for a delicious meal?

To prepare a crispy roasted whole chicken, first pat the chicken dry, season it generously with salt, pepper, and herbs, and let it sit in the fridge uncovered for a few hours or overnight. Preheat the oven to a high temperature, around 425F, and roast the chicken on a rack in a roasting pan until the skin is golden and crispy, and the internal temperature reaches 165F. Let it rest before carving and serving for a delicious meal.
