SAFFRON-ORANGE ROTISSERIE CHICKEN
Number Of Ingredients 13
Steps:
- TO MAKE THE MARINADE: In a small bowl whisk together the marinade ingredients. Remove and discard the neck, giblets, wing tips, and any excess fat from the chicken. Rinse the chicken, inside and out, under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Rub the marinade all over the inside and outside of the chicken. Place the whole orange and bay leaf in the chicken cavity and truss the chicken with cotton string (see REFERANCE & APPENDIX, _Trussing: All Tied Up). Place the chicken in a large, resealable plastic bag and pour in the orange juice. Press the air out of the bag and seal tightly. Turn the bag to distribute the juice, place in a bowl, and refrigerate for 8 to 24 hours, turning occasionally. Remove the chicken from the bag and discard the juice. Season the chicken with salt. Center lengthwise on the spit, running the skewer through the orange, and let the chicken rotate over Indirect Medium heat until the juices run clear and the internal temperature reaches 170°F in the breast and 180°F in the thickest part of the thigh, 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours. Turn off the rotisserie and, using barbecue mitts, remove the spit from the grill. Slide the chicken from the spit onto a cutting board. Loosely cover with aluminum foil and allow to rest for about 10 minutes. Remove the string, orange, and bay leaf. Cut the chicken into serving pieces and serve warm.From Weber's Big Book of Grilling.
