Put some butter and a cut up lemon or some celery stalks inside each. Season as desired. Bake in the preheated oven, to a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees F . Remove from heat, and baste with melted butter and drippings. For juiciest results, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest about 30 minutes before serving.
