Chicken is a staple in many homes not just Sabrina Ghayours and ours at Herb Fed headquarters. We all have our preferences on cuts, this recipe originally showcased succulent chicken thighs, however I’ve used a whole chicken as I prefer using an entire chicken when feeding the family.

Ingredients

1 Herb Fed Whole Chicken

4 garlic cloves

½ red pepper, cored and deseeded

½ small packet of fresh coriander

2 teaspoons ground allspice

2 teaspoons dried oregano

1 teaspoon paprika

½ teaspoon chilli flakes

2 tablespoons olive oil

I teaspoon red or white wine vinegar

Generous amount of Maldon Sea salt and freshly ground black
pepper

Method

Line a baking tray with baking paper.

Blitz all the marinade ingredients in a small bullet blender or mini food processor until smooth. 

Pour over the chicken and rub over all sides and push a good tablespoon under the skin too. 

Place the chicken on the lined tray.

Roast the chicken for about 1 hour 30 minutes depending on the size of the chicken or until tender and the juices run clear. Â
