Ingredients
- 6 tbsp smooth orange juice
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 2 tsp ground nutmeg
- 0.5 tsp ground all spice
- A pinch of ground cloves
- salt
- Whole cloves to stud optional
- 2 kg whole roasting chicken
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to fan-assisted 190C / 210C / 425F / gas 7.
- Mix the orange juice, olive oil, garlic, nutmeg, allspice, ground cloves and salt together.
- Place the chicken in a roasting try and smear the marinade both outside and inside the chicken.
- Roast in the hot oven for 20 mins.
- Then reduce the temperature to fan-assisted 160C / 180C / 350F / gas 4, baste the chicken and roast for a further 35-40 mins or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 74C (165 F) on a thermometer and the juice run clear.
- Switch off the oven leaving the door open and let the chicken rest for 15-20 mins before carving.
Notes
- Cover it with foil for most of the cooking time. This keeps it moist. If you brown your chicken first – that's done without foil and you add the foil when you turn your oven on.
- If eaten with skin removed, there is just 1 Freestyle SmartPoints in a serving of this Nutmeg Orange Chicken.
