CARIBBEAN-SPICED ROAST CHICKEN image

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 fluid ounces rum
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground clove
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
1 (3 pound) whole chicken
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). In a small bowl, combine the lime juice, rum, and brown sugar; set aside. Mix together the cayenne pepper, clove, cinnamon, ginger, pepper, salt, and thyme leaves. Brush the chicken with oil, then coat with the spice mixture. Place in a roasting pan, and bake about 90 minutes, until the juices run clear or until a meat thermometer inserted in thickest part of the thigh reaches 180 degrees F. Baste the chicken with the sauce every 20 minutes while it's cooking. Allow chicken to rest for 10 minutes before carving.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out great! I loved the crispy skin and the juicy meat. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not usually a fan of chicken, but this recipe changed my mind. The spices were so flavorful and the chicken was so moist. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it twice now and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The chicken is always perfectly cooked and the spices are amazing. I love the little bit of heat from the cayenne pepper.

I tried this recipe last night and it was a hit with my family! The chicken was so moist and flavorful, and the spices were perfect. I especially loved the crispy skin. I will definitely be making this again.
