Thank you again foodnetwork.com! I was watching Food Network a while ago and saw my only ever episode of Big Daddy's House. He did chicken three ways; I tried all three, and they were all delicious! Here is the first way (I will post the other two soon):
Downtown Roasted Chicken
Ingredients:
- 5 chipotles
- 2 tablespoons adobo sauce
- 5 cloves garlic
- 2 shallots, diced
- 2 limes, juiced
- 1/2 cup cilantro leaves
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon cracked black pepper
- 3 (3 to 4 pound) chickens, trussed -(I used a package of chicken thighs.)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Put the chipotles, adobo sauce, garlic, shallots, lime juice, cilantro, olive oil, salt and pepper into a blender. Pulse the marinade until smooth and emulsified. Rub each chicken liberally with the marinade.
Arrange the chickens on a half sheet pan with a rack. Roast until cooked through, about 60 to 75 minutes (or until chicken temp reads 160 degrees on meat thermometer). Remove from the oven and allow them to rest for about 15 minutes. Carve 1 chicken and arrange it on a serving platter. Serve.
Reserve the remaining chickens for recipes that use roast chicken (which I will post and link up soon).
