Spread the love

Ingredients for 1 servings:

  • ½ chicken, approx. 700 g
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 tsp paprika powder, hot
  • 2 tsp curry powder, red, hot
  • 1 tsp curry powder, yellow
  • some black pepper, freshly ground
  • e.g. olive oil

Instructions

Working time approx. 10 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 1 hour 30 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 40 minutes

half broiler, with spiced glaze

Preheat oven to 120°C fan/convection oven, line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. While the chicken is warm, mix the spices with a little olive oil and thoroughly season the chicken inside and out (“coat”). Don’t forget to lift the wings and legs and season the spaces between them! Then place the chicken (leg-side up) on the lowest rack in the oven and bake for 90 minutes. Brush with a little olive oil about every 20 minutes, or at the latest when the skin is no longer shiny. Note: The crispy skin is so delicious that you’ll almost want to eat the skin. The medium temperature keeps the meat nice and juicy, and the long cooking time means you can practically suck it off the bone. A delicious treat!
