ROASTED CHICKEN

I use  Grizzly Joe's "Original Gourmet" seasoning for this easy roasted chicken recipe.  Place a roasting chicken in a roaster such as a Nesco.  Place about half a chopped onion in cavity.  Spray the chicken with butter spray ( I can't believe it's Not Butter ) and sprinkle Grizzly Joe's "Original Gourmet" seasoning liberally over the entire chicken.  Spray some more butter spray over the seasoning.  Bake (at 350) for about a half hour.  Repeat the spray and seasoning, and then add two bags of stew vegetables.  Spray them and season them also.  Bake until the chicken is done and the veggies are tender.  This in one of my family's favorite chicken dinners.
