I forgot to mention that I have a gas oven, and, as the combustion of methane (natural gas) produces water as a by-product, thus humidifying the hot air in the oven, I always roast my chicken in an al(i)uminum container with sides higher than the height of the chicken pieces I'm roasting, so that I can cover the top of the container with a piece of alumin(i)um foil without allowing the foil covering to touch the chicken pieces, and I further crimp the edges of the foil around the edges of the cooking vessel, to partially protect the chicken skin from the humidity present in the gas oven, and also to produce a mild pressure-cooker effect.
Sorry for my forgetfulness on this point!
