ROAST CHICKEN
Transform a standard supermarket bird into a rotisserie-style masterpiece. This recipe uses our Chicken Seasoning blend to create a sweet and smoky crust while keeping the meat succulent and tender.
Equipment
- Mixing Bowl
- Roasting Tin
- Oven
Ingredients
- 1.6 kg Whole Chicken
- 4 tbsp Chicken Seasoning by Goodness In A Bowl (see Notes below to shop)
- 2 tbsp Softened Butter or Olive Oil
- 1 Lemon (halved)
Instructions
- Prep: Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Pat the chicken skin completely dry with kitchen paper - this is vital for a crispy finish.
- Season: Mix the softened butter with your Chicken Seasoning to form a paste. Rub the paste all over the chicken, including under the skin of the breast if possible.
- Roast: Place the chicken in a roasting tin and insert the lemon halves into the cavity. Roast for 1 hour and 15–20 minutes, or until the juices run clear.
- Rest: Let the chicken rest for 15 minutes before carving. The brown sugar will have caramelised with the chicken juices to create a natural "glaze".
Notes
The ultimate way to use the Chicken Seasoning blend. The sugar in the seasoning creates a crispy, mahogany-coloured skin that looks incredible in photos.
The combination of Brown Sugar with both Sweet and Smoked Paprika creates that sought-after "Barbecue" or "Rotisserie" finish—sweet, smoky, and deeply golden.
