My hubby and I both like baked chicken from our childhood – rubbed with salt, peppers and garlic. I tried a few recipes, but every time agreed that our favourite is still the same – the one from childhood. Until now! After we tried this recipe, we don’t want that traditional anymore. We baked chicken by this recipe maybe five times or more, but I just can’t make good photo of it. Sorry about that, but anyway I really think you should try it and think you will be it too.
This chicken has a mild lemon taste. It is a little bit spicy and hot, but it’s not so hot because my kids skill eat it 🙂 The seasoning mixture in here is just perfect for us.
Rotisserie style baked chicken
Time needed:
Yields: 4 servings
Calories: 323 kcal / 1 serving
Ingredients:
- 1 big chicken
- 2 tbsps. butter, room temperature (I use a little bit more)
- 1 lemon, cut in quarters
- 1 onion, cut in quarters
- 3 cloves garlic, crushed
- 2 1/2 tbsps. oil
- 1 tbsp. salt
- 2 tsps. dried basil
- 1 tsp. dried thyme
- 1 tsp. paprika powder
- 1/2 tsp. onion powder
- 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
- 3/4 tsp. black pepper
- 1/4 tsp. cayenne
Directions:
- Rinse chicken and pat dry with paper towels.
- Place onion, lemon and garlic inside the chicken cavity. Then close it with a wooden skewer.
- With fingers make cavity between chicken skin and breast. Rub butter in there. This won’t let dry out the chicken breast.
- In a bowl mix all the seasonings and pour oil. With this mixture rub all over chicken. Then put chicken in a cold place and let marinate. We like to marinate for night or even more.
- Preheat oven to 230°C.
- Put chicken in a baking dish breast side up. Bake about 1 hour, or while inner temperature reaches 80°C.
- Take out from the oven and let rest for 10-20 minutes.
- Enjoy!

Chicken breast with curry and lemon peel
This dinner was very delicious and quick and it reminded me the spring when almost every meal was with a huge bowl of salads and a little bit meat for satiety. I baked chicken on electric grill and it was done in 10 minutes. It gave just enough time to chop my salads. I just love to have recipes that are appreciated by my family and at the same time are very quick.
Almond chicken fingers
These chicken fingers are very good. A lot of spices are used in the recipe, but the combination is perfect. Only cayenne pepper you should add according to your taste. When I prepare this chicken to my children, I add only half of it, but in the original it is used twice as much. Fingers are prepared very quickly, and the most exciting thing that it doesn’t need time to marinate, and later you don’t have to stand near the pan. For your health – it’s only for the good. We ate this chicken already many times, sometimes just as fast food – with some sauce and pickles or oven fried potatoes. This time we had it for dinner with some vegetable stew, ordinary enough, but still everything was good and we liked it.
Smoked chicken breast and broccoli salads
When my mother on the weekend told me about the salads that she tasted at work, I was sceptical. And when she decided to prepare it for us, I was afraid (our taste is very different). But I’m glad that she did it, because we liked it a lot. It’s better to say that grown ups liked it, because my kids didn’t like onion and broccoli. Mayonnaise doesn’t make these salads healthy but for a quick dinner they were very good.

Japanese chicken
Very delicious chicken. We prepared if a few times but it was very hard to take photos. The first time I overcooked the chicken but glaze was thicker. The second time I cooked less but the glaze was thin. So I think the best would be to cook chicken (not over cook), then take it out and cook liquid to prepare good glaze 🙂 Anyway, both times it was delicious supper for my family.
