Sprinkle the chicken inside and out with the spice mixture. Place the rosemary and thyme inside the chicken. Place the chicken in an oven bag, tie, and, using a knife, cut a slit into the top. Place the bag in a microwave-safe casserole and cook at high for 12 to 16 minutes (or bake in a preheated 350 degree F. oven for 25 minutes), turning once after 7 minutes carefully. If any part of the chicken is pink, return (covered) to the microwave oven for 4 or 5 minutes, or the oven for 10 minutes. Remove the chicken from the bag, discard the herbs, and serve hot.

You must use an oven bag to ensure a juicy outcome. The fresh herbs are aromatic and the spice mixture gives the bird a speckly look while adding incredible flavor.
