Instructions
1

Preheat your oven to 425°F. Remove the rotisserie chicken from its packaging and place it on a roasting pan.

2

Pat the chicken dry with paper towels to ensure a crispy skin. In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.

3

Rub this mixture all over the chicken, making sure to get under the skin for maximum flavor. Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for 15 minutes to crisp up the skin.

4

While the chicken is roasting, prepare the pineapple salsa by combining 1 cup of diced fresh pineapple, 1/4 cup of finely chopped red onion, 1/4 cup of chopped cilantro, the juice of 1 lime, and 1 jalapeño (seeded and minced) in a bowl.

5

Mix well and set aside to let the flavors meld. After 15 minutes, reduce the oven temperature to 350°F and continue roasting the chicken for an additional 30-35 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

6

Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving. Serve the chicken with the sweet and spicy pineapple salsa on the side, allowing everyone to add as much salsa as they like.

Enjoy your delicious family-friendly meal!
