ROASTED CHICKEN

Ingredients:

• 2 kilo dressed chicken (broiler)

• 2 cups of lemon grass (tanlad)

• 3 tablespoons of cooking oil

• 2 tablespoons of salt

Cooking Instructions:

• Make sure the chicken is clean with no remaining small feathers and no insides.

• Wash thoroughly and pat dry with a paper towel

• Rub the whole chicken with cooking oil as well as the inside cavity.

• Next apply salt all over, again, including the insides.

• Fill the cavity with lemon grass

• Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit

• Place the chicken on an oven rotisserie.

• If you don't have a rotisserie put the chicken on an elevated rack on a baking pan - breast side up (so the bottom of the chicken does not touch the baking pan).

• Bake for 1 hour or until the chicken is golden brown. When you prick between the chicken thigh and body and the juice runs clear (not bloody) the chicken is done.

• Serve with mashed potatoes, rice or corn on the side.
