[EN] Roast Chicken / دجاج محمر – CookingWithAlia – Episode 637

Today, we are kicking off a special series of the CookingWithAlia family team meals directly from our studio, so you can make them yourself at home and enjoy them with your family. The CookingWithAlia team members really enjoy hanging out together and we share meals together during work days in the studio. One of our favorite is this roast chicken, a very easy recipe, yet I promise it will be devoured before you finish serving!
RECIPE: https://goo.gl/pGBqSp

INGREDIENTS:
1 medium sized chicken

Chicken Marinade Ingredients
1 large onion
4 garlic cloves
A little bunch of parsley
1/4 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 teaspoons mustard
2 tablespoons olive oil
Juice of 1/2 lemon

Salad Ingredients
1 medium cucumber
2 medium tomatoes
Salt and pepper, to taste
Fresh lemon juice

DIRECTIONS:
1- Preheat your oven to 200°C / 400°F.
2- Place the onion, garlic cloves, and parsley in a food processor. Mix until you get a smooth paste and place in a bowl.
3- Add to the onion mixture the spices (ground turmeric, ground ginger, salt, and pepper), mustard, olive oil, and lemon juice. Mix well.
4- Wash the chicken with water and rub it with half a lemon to reduce the raw chicken taste then wash again with water. Cut the chicken into 4 chunks (2 leg parts and 2 breast and wing parts).
5- Place the chicken on a baking pan, pour the marinade on the chicken, and rub well until every chicken piece is fully coated. Using a knife, poke the chicken for the marinade to get absorbed within the meat.
6- Place the baking pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes or until the chicken is done and has a beautiful deep golden color.
7- To make the salad, slice the cucumber and tomatoes and place them in a bowl. Set aside and right before serving, season the salad by adding salt, pepper, olive oil, and lemon juice to your taste.
8- Check the chicken at mid-point of cooking time, and if the chicken looks dry, add some water in the baking pan and continue baking.
9- Once the chicken is done, serve immediately with the salad on the side. Enjoy!
