For extra crispy skin, pat the chicken completely dry with paper towels before applying the mustard and seasoning. Don't skip the resting period! This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful bird. Serve with your favorite roasted vegetables for a complete and satisfying meal. The pan drippings can be used to make a delicious gravy.
