This was a favourite with my guests because the skin goes quiet charred and crispy, I don't know anyone who doesn't like crisp chicken skin and its dead easy to make when you haven't been shopping, just a bit of curry powder and marmalade
Curry and Orange Roasted Cornfed Chicken
Ingredients
1 x 1200 to 1700gm corn fed chicken
1/4 cup of orange marmalade
1 tbsp canola oil
1/4 cup curry powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
Method
Before you go to work or the day before if you wish, combine marmalade, oil, curry powder, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Coat whole Corn fed Chicken and coat the washed inside cavity, leave in the fridge until 30 minutes before cooking, the longer you leave it the more the flavour will permeate the flesh
Preheat oven to 200°C
Place whole Chicken on an oven tray and in the oven for 10 minutes on 200 to seal, then turn temperature down to 180°C and cook for half an hour for every 500gms until golden brown and juice runs clear when piercing the leg
45 minutes before ready to serve, place any veggies that are good for roasting in the pan, whatever you happen to have in your fridge
To serve, cut into 8 pieces and serve with roasted veggies
Tips & Hints
Serve with a cucumber minted yoghurt and quinoa salad for a healthy family meal or whatever left overs you have in the fridge.
If you are low on fruit and vegies, go to the pantry and see what you have on hand.
