Chook Juice
Hello shoppers... I have been asked about recipes that don't involve shooting endangered animals. So instead of swan I will give you the recipe for a roast chicken that I cooked last night.....
Ingredients:
1 free range chicken.
1 lime.
6 cloves of garlic.
1/2 cup of flat leaf parsley.
Olive oil.
Salt.
Pepper.
Method:
Prepare a kettle (Webber) BBQ using about 20 heat beads stacked to one side. In the middle of the BBQ lower grill. (Where the hot coals normally sit). Place a drip tray half filled with water. This will catch the dripping off the chook aswell as provideing moisture. While the BBQ is heating up, stuff the chicken with the quarted lime, garlic cloves, and flat leaf parsley. Rub the skin of the chicken with olive oil and season well with salt and pepper. By now the BBQ should be good and hot. Carefully place the chicken on the grill so that the breast end faces the coals. Cook one hour for every kilogram of bird.
Serving:
Befor carving make sure the chicken has rested for about ten minutes. This will help to keep the juices and flavor intact.
A simple side would be a green leaf and tomato salad with a lemon, garlic, peper, and olive oil dressing.
