Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Place the chicken in a roasting pan and season it generously, inside and out, with the onion powder, salt, and pepper. Put 3 tablespoons of the butter in the cavity of the chicken. Rub 3 tablespoons of butter on the chicken's skin. Cut the celery into a few pieces and put them in the chicken cavity. Bake for 1 hour 15 minutes, until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken breast registers 180°F.
- Remove the roasting pan from the oven. Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in a small saucepan. Baste the chicken with the melted butter and pan drippings. Cover with aluminum foil and allow to rest about 30 minutes before carving.
