Preheat your oven to 425°F. Prepare a roasting pan with a rack.
Rinse the chicken inside and out under cold running water. Dry chicken thoroughly with paper towels.
Rub the chicken all over with the olive oil. Season the chicken inside and out with salt and pepper.
Prick the lemons several times with a fork and place them, along with the rosemary, inside the chicken cavity.
Place the chicken on the rack in the roasting pan. Roast for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the juices run clear when you cut between a leg and thigh.
