I don't really remember why I decided this would be good to try. The family loved it so I kept fixing it. I also do these on the grill/smoker sometimes. If using a grill set up for indirect cooking. You could also use lemon, but my DIL seems to love the lime taste. Ingredients:
1 (4 -5 lb) chicken |
1 lime, quartered |
1 bunch cilantro |
kosher salt, to-taste |
ground fresh black pepper, to-taste |
Directions:
1. Wash chicken and pat dry (always remember to protect your family from salmonella).
2. Place lime quarters in the cavity of the chicken.
3. Stuff the remainder of the cavity with cilantro.
4. Salt and pepper to taste.
5. Bake at 350°F according to your favorite chart until juices run clear (depending on weight 1 1/4 to 1 3/4 hours).
6. Serve with American southwest, Mexican, or SE Asian side dishes.
