How to Make:

  1. Pat dry the washed chicken with kitchen tissue. Keep aside.
  2. Then take all ingredients in a bowl for making the marinade. Mix well.
  3. Now marinate the chicken with that. Make sure the marinade also should go under the chicken skin as much as possible.
  4. Keep it in fridge for 2 hours.
  5. Next we will make the stuffing. For that, take oil in a pan.
  6. Add butter and allow it to melt.
  7. Now add onion and fry until it changes the colour.
  8. Then add galic and saute for couple of minutes.
  9. Add chicken and season with some salt. 
  10. Then cover and cook for 7 minutes in medium heat.
  11. Add green chilli.
  12. After that add rice and stir well.
  13. Season with black pepper followed by dried rosemary.
  14. Add crushed peanuts followed by raisins, cashew nuts & walnuts.
  15. Squeeze the lemon in it.
  16. Give final toss and turn off the heat. Keep aside.
  17. Now take all veggies in a baking tray and marinate with spices and oil. Squeeze orange and lemon it it. Set aside.
  18. Fill the cavity of chicken with stuffing.
  19. Then tie the chicken legs with kitchen twine to make sure nothing comes out while baking.
  20. Then place into center of baking tray with all veggies.
  21. Bake for 65 minutes uncovered at 180°C in a preheated oven.
  22. Then take out and give it a 30 minutes standing time before serving.

My Tip: 

  • When chicken is done, if you are not sure it's completely done or not, you can check it by cutting in breast and leg joint with a knife. If juice comes out clean then it's completely done. but if you can see something is pink or red that means you need to bake few more minutes.
  • Baking time may vary in oven to oven.
  • Pat dry of chicken at first is very necessary step for this recipe to marinate the chicken properly.
  • Roasted chicken should be nice golden brown after baking. But if you don't want brown colour in chicken, then bake the chicken covering with a aluminum foil.

Christmas Cake (Part-1): Dry Fruits Soaking in Rum

Image
Its the time to soak dry fruit in alcohol(dark Rum/ whisky/ Brandy/ red wine). Traditionally, dry fruit should be soaked 3 months before the Christmas. But at least 1 month soak is very necessary to make dry fruit juicy. In classic Christmas cake, juicy dry fruits are the main ingredients. Here you can use any dry fruits whatever you get. Other ingredients like flour is just used to bind dry fruits and nuts. My Christmas celebration can't be complete without traditional Christmas cake. We will bake the cake in next month at least a week before from Christmas. After baking, the last step is feeding the cake. It is very important to allow the cake to be matured by feeding with alcohol. After baking some tiny wholes will be made with a skewer to feed the cake. Brush the cake with alcohol twice in a week after baking. Here I am using Rum to soak the fruit and will do the feeding after baking the cake with Rum. If you don't want to use alcohol, instead of this you can use ora...
