Roasted Chicken Recipe
Estimated cooking time: 1 1/2 to 2 hours
Roasted Chicken Ingredients: |
-
2 kilo dressed chicken (broiler)
-
2 cups of lemon grass (tanlad)
-
3 tablespoons of cooking oil
-
2 tablespoons of salt
Cooking Instructions: |
-
Make sure the chicken is clean with no remaining small feathers and no insides.
-
Wash thoroughly and pat dry with a paper towel
-
Rub the whole chicken with cooking oil as well as the inside cavity.
-
Next apply salt all over, again, including the insides.
-
Fill the cavity with lemon grass
-
Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit
-
Place the chicken on an oven rotisserie.
-
If you don't have a rotisserie put the chicken on an elevated rack on a baking pan - breast side up (so the bottom of the chicken does not touch the baking pan).
-
Bake for 1 hour or until the chicken is golden brown. When you prick between the chicken thigh and body and the juice runs clear (not bloody) the chicken is done.
-
Serve with mashed potatoes, rice or corn on the side.
Roasted Chicken Cooking Note: |
-
If baking at 325 degrees Fahrenheit, bake for 1 1/2 to 2 hours in the oven.
