Preheat oven to 350F.
Rinse the whole chicken and pat it dry. Pour 2 tablespoons of oil into the bottom of an oven-proof casserole that has a lid, and put the chicken in the casserole. Drizzle oil all over the chicken.
Cut the lemon in half. Cut one half into thin slices, and cut the remaining half into 2 pieces.
Sprinkle Italian seasoning all over the oiled chicken. Season with salt. Then place lemon slices on top of the seasoning. Jam the remaining 2 pieces of lemon into the chicken cavity.
Cover the casserole and place in the oven. Bake for 2 hours, taking the lid off for the last 20 minutes or so to brown and crisp up the skin.
The aroma in your kitchen will be wonderful!
