How to cook chicken in the oven
Prepare a saline solution in which we will place the chicken. Pour water into a large bowl and put salt at the rate of 60 g of salt per 1 liter of water. Place the chicken in saline overnight. After that, dry the chicken, rub with spices on the outside and inside. Place sliced lemon, onion and a couple of sprigs of thyme inside the carcass.
Wash the carrots, cut large into several pieces along, place in a baking dish. Preheat the oven to 90 C. Put the chicken to bake for 1.5 hours. Using a meat thermometer, measure the temperature by sticking the probe in the chicken breast – it is ready if the thermometer shows 70C. Remove the chicken form from the oven, leave to “rest” for 45 minutes. If the carrots are still solid, put the chicken on a plate, and bring the baking tray with carrots to a higher temperature by raising the oven temperature to 140 ° C. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees C. Put the chicken in the oven for 5 minutes, then serve the chicken baked in the oven on the table..
Bon Appetit!
