Let’s make a delicious whole roasted chicken that’s crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. It’s surprisingly easy!
Main Ingredients- 1 whole chicken (approx. 1kg)
- 1/2 cup beer (100ml)
- 1 tsp salt (5g)
- 1 tsp minced garlic (5g)
- Pinch of black pepper
- Pinch of dried parsley flakes
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
We’re going to make a delicious whole roasted chicken using an air fryer right in your own home. Get ready for a treat that’s perfectly crispy on the outside and wonderfully juicy on the inside!
Step 2
First, prepare your chicken by rinsing it thoroughly and patting it dry. In a large bowl, place the chicken and add 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp minced garlic, a pinch of black pepper, and a pinch of dried parsley flakes. Pour in 1/2 cup of beer – this not only adds a subtle flavor but also helps tenderize the meat and reduce any gamey odors. Use your hands to gently massage the seasonings into the chicken, ensuring it’s coated evenly. Let it marinate for about 15 minutes for best results.
Step 3
Place the marinated chicken into your air fryer basket. We’ll be cooking it at 180°C (350°F) for a total of 30 minutes. First, air fry for 15 minutes, then carefully flip the chicken over and air fry for another 15 minutes. This ensures even cooking and a beautifully crispy skin all around. You might want to line the bottom of your air fryer basket with parchment paper to catch any drippings, making cleanup a breeze.
Step 4
Voilà! Your old-fashioned whole roasted chicken is ready. It should be golden brown and perfectly crispy on the outside, with incredibly moist and flavorful meat inside. Take a bite and be amazed! It’s a wonderfully satisfying dish to make at home.
