Cooking Instructions
For best results, remove the chicken from the fridge 30 minutes before cooking.
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (conventional/non-fan).
- Season the chicken and place into a preheated roasting tray.
- Roast for 20 minutes at 200°C.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 180°C and continue cooking for approximately 30 minutes per kg.
- Check the chicken is thoroughly cooked by inserting a skewer into the thickest part of the thigh. The juices should run clear.
- If the juices are not clear, return to the oven for a further 10 minutes, then check again.
- Once cooked, remove from the oven and allow to rest for 15 minutes before carving.
Carve, serve and enjoy.
