Hi Steemians! Need another idea for dinner? :-). I made this chicken for lunch yesterday: crispy and hot out of the oven, it tastes best! It's even better when it's really quick and easy. This recipe almost makes itself. Here's the deal:
Ingredients for 4 persons
1 fresh organic roast chicken from the butcher
1 garlic, lemon
1 tablespoon rosemary, marjoram, sweet paprika spice
400 g each of carrots, potatoes
300 g parsnip
1 cup olive oil
fleur de sel, black pepper
Preparation
- First peel a garlic clove and press it into a cup. Add 1 tsp. salt, 4 tbsp. oil and the paprika spice and mix everything together. Put this sauce aside for know. Preheat the oven to 175°C (347°F).
- Wash the chicken thoroughly and dab with kitchen towels. Wash the lemon well and chop it unpeeled. Mix the lemon in a bowl with the rosemary.
- Rub the bird from the inside well with salt and pepper and then fill up with the seasoned lemon pieces. The chicken is then put into in a roaster and in the oven for a total of 100 min. Butter occasionally with the paprika olive oil.
- Peel and wash the carrots, potatoes and parsnip. Cut the vegetables into bite-sized pieces and put them in a bowl. Peel another garlic clove and squeeze it over the vegetables. Now season with salt and 5 tbsp. olive oil. Mix well.
- After 50 min of cooking time, add the vegetables to the roaster and spread the chicken again with the paprika olive oil. Cook all together for another 45 min. Finally – right before serving – sprinkle the marjoram over the dish and serve.
