Rotisserie style baked chicken

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 homemade tomato sauce

Sometimes even when at home there is only a few products, you still can prepare satisfying meal. For this one you only need to buy canned tomatoes and chicken breast, other products – I guest almost everyone have at home. But I have to tell you this time you will have to spend some time preparing tomato sauce, but it’s worth that. I like it even more than store bought. But my kids don’t agree with me 🙂 But everyone has the right to choose.

Turkey and rice stew with carrots and green peas

It’s really very simple stew and seasonings play here the main role. So you should use the ones that your family loves and the quantities that are good for you. Make experiment and enjoy it! As you can guess you can substitute turkey with chicken. We tried it already and we didn’t noticed the difference.

Baked chicken salads

Very delicious and satisfying salads. Especially we liked that bell pepper is baked not fresh. I prepared these salads not once and tried with iceberg salad, and with salads form our garden (salads, rucola, sorrel). Every time it was perfect! And depending on vegetables amount you can prepare this salads for 6 or for 3 people. It’s up to you 🙂

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.

I wanted something new, not usual to us. So I prepared this chicken and I’m happy about that. At first the process looked very difficult and long, but in one hour everything was finished and we could enjoy the meal.
