  4. Make small, inch long slices in chicken skin in a variety of areas covering the whole chicken. 
  5. Place remaining lemon, onion, and rosemary under the skin. 
  6. Sprinkle chicken with salt, and set aside.
  7. Place all ingredients for lemon sauce in a medium/large-sized bowl.
  8. Using a hand blender, blend all ingredients for lemon sauce until smooth, and pour on top of chicken.
  9. Place chicken in the oven or air-fryer, and bake (use the roast feature if using an air-fryer) at 350º for around 20 minutes per pound, or until chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165º. 
  10. For crisp skin, place on broil, or air-fry for 2-5 minutes once chicken is finished cooking.
  11. Remove from heat, and serve warm! Enjoy!
