Homestyle Rotisserie Chicken
This Homestyle Rotisserie Chicken is tender, juicy, and full of flavor. It's a perfect dinner option for a comforting home-cooked meal.
Equipment
- Rotisserie Oven or Regular Oven
- Meat Thermometer
- Basting Brush
Ingredients
- 1 whole chicken (around 4 lbs)
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp sea salt
- 1 tbsp ground black pepper
- 1 tbsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp paprika
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
Instructions
- Preheat your rotisserie oven or regular oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Clean the chicken thoroughly, removing any giblets, and pat dry with paper towels.
- In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, thyme, and rosemary to create your seasoning mix.
- Rub the seasoning mix all over the chicken, both inside and out, ensuring every part is well-coated.
- If using a rotisserie oven, secure the chicken onto the rotisserie rod and place it in the oven. For a regular oven, place the chicken on a rack in a roasting pan.
- Cook for approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) when checked with a meat thermometer at the thickest part of the thigh.
- Once cooked, let the chicken rest for about 10 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the chicken moist.
Notes
Using a meat thermometer is essential to ensure your chicken is cooked to the right temperature. Always rest the chicken before carving to maintain juiciness.
