Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 2h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 kg whole chickens
sea salt
fresh ground black pepper
fresh parsley
fresh ginger
2 red peppers
2 yellow peppers
4 red onions
2 red chilies
1 pineapple
1 teaspoon fennel seed
olive oil
2 tablespoons sugar
6 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven 190c/375F/Gas5.
  • You will need a casserole dish large enough for the chicken to sit on top of all the vegetables and pineapple .
  • You will also need a food processor.
  • Crush the fennel seeds and put to one side.
  • Chop the parley and put to one side.
  • Cut the stalk off the top of the chillies. Snap them in half and put those to one side too.
  • Grate the ginger - Leaving the skin on.
  • Season the chicken inside and out with salt and pepper and stuff the cavity with the parsley and ginger.
  • Cut the red onions and peppers and pineapple into quarters and put into a cold casserole dish.
  • Add the chillies and crushed fennel seeds. Drizzle with 3 good glugs of olive oil.
  • Sprinkle with salt and pepper and give it a good stir to coat everything well.
  • Place the chicken on top and pat it with a little oil. Cook in the middle of a pre-heated oven until the chicken is cooked - about 1 and 50 minutes.
  • ***Please note cooking time is APROX - please read the lable on the chicken. The chicken is only cooked when the juices run clear and you can easily pull the bone from the thighs.
  • When cooked, remove the chicken and drain the juices over the pan.
  • Also remove half of the vegetables and half of the pineapple and put with the chicken and keep warm.
  • Put the remaining vegetables and pineapple from the pan into a food processor with the sugar and balsamic vinegar. Correct the seasoning with a little salt and pepper - if needed.
  • Blend to make a lovely sauce. ONLY if needed add a little boiling water to loosen and thin out.
  • Remove the chicken from the bone and put onto serving plates - pour over the sauce.
  • I served mine with boiled rice.

This was the best pot roasted chicken I have ever had! The chicken was so tender and flavorful, and the sauce was the perfect balance of sweet and sour. I will definitely be making this again soon.

This recipe was a disaster! The chicken was dry and overcooked, and the sauce was too thick and gloopy. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

The chicken was cooked perfectly, but the sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the sauce next time.

The chicken was a bit bland, but the sauce was very good. I would recommend adding more spices to the chicken before roasting it.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken turned out perfectly. The sauce was also very good, but I added a bit of extra garlic and ginger to give it more flavor.

The chicken was a bit dry, but the sauce was delicious. I would recommend using a different cut of chicken, such as thighs or breasts, for a more moist result.
