Roasted Chicken Recipe

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.
