Roasted Chicken in a sweet and spicy chili sauce.

Ingredients: 

  • 1.5 kg chicken 
  • 15g oregano (freshly ground is preferable) 
  • garlic cloves finely chopped or blended in food processor 
  • 50g sea salt 
  • 20g freshly ground black pepper 
  • 40g sweet chili powder 
  • 1 large onion finely chopped or blended in food processor 
  • 100mL lemon juice 
  • 100mL olive oil 
  • Sprig of rosemary approximately 15cm in length

Preparation:

Mix all the ingredients listed above, except for the oil and lemon juice, and use the marinade to marinate the chicken.

The blended onion in the marinade should provide enough moisture, but if it’s too dry, you can add some olive oil.

Combine the lemon juice and oil in a jar, and use a rosemary sprig to baste the chicken with this mixture every 15-20 minutes.

Cook time:

  • 2 hours

Hot tip:

Use a cooking thermometer to check that the chicken breast has reached a temperature of 75 degrees.
