Rotisserie Whole Chicken (Just Like Boston Market) image

I've made this with a whole chicken, and it's a lovely presentation that gets lots of oohs and ahhs. But my carving skills and patience leave a little to desire. So I tried making this with a cut-up fryer once, and it's just as delicious.

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

CHICKEN:
3.5-4 lb whole chicken
1 large onion, cut into several wedges
1 large apple, unpeeled but cut into wedges
10 large chunks of celery (about 1 1/2 to 2 inches long)
cooking spray
BASTE:
1/4 c vegetable oil
1 Tbsp honey
1 Tbsp lime juice
1/4 tsp paprika
1 tsp seasoning salt, or to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a deep roasting pan with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.
  • 2. Place celery chunks, apple wedges and onion wedges inside the cavity of the chicken.
  • 3. Mix all basting ingredients in a saucepan, and warm to melt the honey. Pour baste over the skin of the chicken.
  • 4. Bake in preheat oven (350°) for 75 to 90 minutes, depending on size of chicken. Baste the chicken 4 or 5 times during baking time, about every 15 minutes or so. The skin should be a nice shade of brown.
  • 5. After removing the chicken from the oven, seal the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil. Let stand at least 30 minutes before carving and serving.
