ROTISSERIE-STYLE CHICKEN
My mother used to fix this rotisserie-style chicken when I lived at home, and we called it Church Chicken because Mom would put it in the oven Sunday morning before we left for church. When we got home, the aroma of the roasted chicken would hit us as we opened the door. -Brian Stevenson, Grand Rapids, Michigan

ROTISSERIE FIVE SPICE CHICKEN
I got this recipe from www.recipe4living.com I haven't try it yet. I love cilantro and lime juice. I had a jar of five spice for years and I never use it because it has cloves and I don't like them; until I tried recipe#151453 and fell in love with it (not with the cloves, but the whole combo). Now I use five spice a lot. I hope is great in this recipe also. Cooking time does not include marinating time. PS: I do not have a rotisserie

Steps:
- To make the marinade: In a medium bowl whisk together the marinade ingredients.
- Remove and discard the neck, giblets, wing tips, and any excess fat from the chicken. Rinse the chicken, inside and out, under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Place the chicken in a large, resealable plastic bag and pour in the marinade. Press the air out of the bag and seal tightly. Turn the bag to distribute the marinade, place the bag in a bowl, and refrigerate for 6 to 8 hours, turning the bag occasionally. Remove the chicken from the bag and discard the marinade.
- Truss the chicken with cotton string. Center the chicken lengthwise on the spit and adjust on the rotisserie. Let the chicken rotate over Indirect High heat until the juices run clear and the meat is no longer pink at the bone, 1 to 1-1/4 hours (check the chicken after 30 minutes; if the skin is browning too quickly, reduce the heat to Indirect Medium). When the chicken is fully cooked, turn off the rotisserie and, using barbecue mitts, remove the spit from the rotisserie and slide the hens from the spit onto a cutting board. Be careful not to splatter yourself with the hot juices. Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes. Cut the chicken into serving pieces. Serve warm.
Tips:
- Use a whole chicken: A whole chicken is more flavorful and juicy than just breasts or thighs.
- Dry the chicken thoroughly: This will help the spices adhere to the skin and give you a crispy crust.
- Use a good quality spice blend: This is the key to getting great flavor in your chicken. You can either make your own blend or use a store-bought one.
- Massage the spices into the chicken: This will help the spices penetrate the skin and give you even more flavor.
- Let the chicken rest before cooking: This will allow the spices to fully absorb into the chicken.
- Cook the chicken over indirect heat: This will help prevent the chicken from drying out.
- Use a meat thermometer to make sure the chicken is cooked through: The internal temperature should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken rest before carving: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the chicken.
Conclusion:
Rotisserie-spiced chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can make sure your chicken turns out perfectly every time. So next time you're looking for a flavorful and juicy chicken dish, give rotisserie-spiced chicken a try. You won't be disappointed!
