Roast in the preheated oven, basting occasionally, until chicken is golden brown, about 2 hours; remove aluminum foil for the last 30 minutes of cooking. An instant-read thermometer inserted into a thigh should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Allow chicken to rest for 10 minutes before carving.

Mindy's Macaroni Salad
I remember my mom making the best macaroni salad when I was a kid. I wanted to make mine similar to hers but added a few things I like, such as pimiento, vinegar, and a gherkin for a little tartness to balance out the sweetness. My husband, who doesn't really like pasta salads, loves this!
