Another weekend has just gone by and even before you could actually realise that it has come it zooms away. You can’t really get really get enough of it!!!
I am quite sure you would not like to spend all your weekend in the kitchen. So came up with this mouth watering dish.
The combination of unique ingredients makes this chicken a dish delicious. It roasts beautifully and is surprisingly fast once it's in the oven.
So here we go!!
Ingredients
- 1 whole chicken, about 1-1.2 kilos (with skin on)
- Salt as per as taste
- Pepper
- Red Wine Vinegar
- Olive Oil
- Oregano
- Fresh Parsley
- Thyme
- Chili Flakes
- Lemon
- Garlic pods
- 2 boiled eggs
- Butter Sticks
- Cheese
- Whole big cloves (for pinning)
Method
Wash the chicken well, especially the cavity within.
If possible use luke warm water.
Rub everything on the chicken, both outside and inside and keep it aside for atleast 6-7 hours.
Grind the herbs into a coarse mixture. If possible use a motor & pestle.
Once the chicken is marinated, rub the herb mixture inside properly. Put the boiled eggs inside along with some butter sticks. Then seal it properly with the cloves, making sure that it doesn’t open up inside the oven. Make tiny punctures underneath the skin & slide in the butter sticks at different places.
Grease the roasting tray well & place the chicken with the legs beneath. Grate the cheese on top.
Preheat the oven to 180 degrees and roast for about 30 minutes. Turn over the chicken and roast for about 10 min.
Then again turn it over and roast it for another 10 minutes. Make sure to spoon away the juices every time on the chicken. It would help the chicken to be juicy & not be charred.
And there you go. Its done.. Serve it with salad, grilled veggies and bread loaves.
Chilled White Wine goes really well with this!!
Happy Cooking,
Shreya
