Prepare the Chicken: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Rinse the chicken and pat it dry. PRub with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

Heat until the butter melts and the ingredients are combined. Simmer for 3-5 minutes.
Apply the Glaze: Place the chicken in a roasting pan and pour half of the glaze over it.
Roast the Chicken: Roast in the preheated oven for 60-90 minutes, basting with the remaining glaze halfway through.
