  3. Transfer the garlic to a small bowl and whisk in the lemon juice, rosemary, sweet paprika, cumin, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, whisk in the olive oil.
  4. Using your fingers, gently loosen the skin from the chicken breasts, thighs and drumsticks; try not to tear the skin.
  5. Season the cavity of the chicken with salt and pepper and put the chicken in a roasting pan.

  7. Rub the butter under the skin of the breast meat.
  8. Rub the remaining 1 tablespoon of the seasoned oil all over the chicken and season it with salt.
  9. Put the reserved lemon halves in the cavity of the chicken and tie the legs together with twine.
  10. Roast the chicken for about 1 1/2 hours, or until the juices from the cavity run clear and the chicken is browned and crisp.
  11. Let the chicken rest in the roasting pan for 15 minutes.
  12. Tilt the chicken to drain the juices from the cavity into the pan; transfer the chicken to a carving board.
