Notes

Use herbs and spices to coat the chicken and stuff the cavity.
Check the doneness of the chicken - the flesh should be opaque and oozing with juices.
If you don’t have access to a miller, you can use a food processor, a strainer and a wooden spoon, a potato ricer, or even a cheese grater and hand blender.
For best results, rotate the roaster every 16 minutes.
If you have a meat thermometer, you’ll know if the chicken is cooked if the thermometer reads 165°C to 190°C.
Moreover, marinate the chicken for at least an hour or overnight. The longer you marinate, the tastier it will be. Pat the seasoning on the chicken to seal in the spices.
Before putting the powdered spices, pat the chicken dry with a kitchen towel. This removes some of the moisture to prepare the chicken skin for the dry ingredients.
To prevent dried chicken texture, remember to baste your chicken with olive oil or any other oil before and after you cook it in the oven.
