Thai Style Roast Chicken
Thai Style Roast Chicken
"I have made this three or four times already and I can say that it had disappeared in minutes. It became all a pile of bones in no time. So, for short it is always a winner. I have to confess this is so tasty that it would be even fit for a king! It is again one of those dinners that you just want to repeat over and over because it tastes so good, it’s super healthy, it’s carbs and totally hassle free."
NotesChicken Roasting time suggestions: - 60 minutes per 1.5 kg of chicken, plus 5 min extra for each 100 g. Eg: 1.8 kg chicken will take about 1h and 15 min.
Serving suggestions : It will go very well along any vegetable stir fry or along delicious roast veggies and cauliflower couscous.
