Rotisserie chicken recipe 🍗🍗

[Pumpkin2022]

Rotisserie chicken is a beloved classic. This tender and juicy chicken is a versatile ingredient that can be used in countless recipes. From salads to sandwiches, soups to casseroles, its savory taste and tender texture make it a staple in many kitchens. Here's a simple yet flavorful recipe to create your own rotisserie-style chicken at home.

Ingredients:

• 1 whole chicken (about 4-5 pounds), giblets removed
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• Optional: 1 lemon, cut into wedges

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Chicken: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Rinse the chicken inside and out under cold water, then pat it dry thoroughly with paper towels.
2. Seasoning Blend: In a small bowl, combine olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a paste.
3. Season the Chicken: Rub the seasoning paste all over the chicken, making sure to coat both the outside and inside cavity evenly. If using, place lemon wedges inside the cavity for added flavor.
4. Truss (Optional): Truss the chicken by tying the legs together with kitchen twine and tucking the wing tips under the body. This helps the chicken cook evenly and keeps its shape.
5. Roast the Chicken: Place the seasoned chicken on a roasting rack or directly in a roasting pan. Roast in the preheated oven for about 1 hour and 15 minutes to 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) when measured with a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh without touching bone.
6. Rest and Serve: Once cooked through, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute and ensures tender, juicy meat.
7. Carve and Enjoy: Carve the rotisserie chicken into desired portions and serve hot. Enjoy as a main dish with your favorite sides, or use the meat in various recipes like salads, sandwiches, soups, and more.

Whether you roast it at home or pick up a pre-cooked chicken from the store, its savory aroma and juicy meat are sure to delight your taste buds. From family dinners to quick lunches, this recipe provides a simple way to enjoy rotisserie-style chicken anytime, anywhere. Embrace its deliciousness and explore the endless culinary possibilities it offers.
