An excellent spice rub for chicken - for those who like things with a kick. I have cooked this both on a rotissiere and in the oven - the rotissiere creates a crisper skin, much like you would get in the neighbourhood deli, but the oven roasted tastes just as good.
Ingredients:
1 (4 lb) roasting chickens
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons black pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon dried thyme
your favorite barbecue sauce (optional)
Directions:
1. Rinse chicken and place inside plastic freezer or ziplock bag.
2. Mix up spices in a small bowl, pour over chicken.
3. Seal bag and shake it to distribute spice evenly over chicken.
4. Place chicken in fridge overnight.
5. Either put chicken on spit in rotissiere and set for approximately 90 minutes, or put chicken on rack in roasting pan and cook in oven at 350 F for approximately 90 minutes, or until temperature registers 180 F on meat thermometer.
6. Let sit on cutting board for about 10 minutes before carving.
7. Carve into thin slices, and serve with warmed barbecue sauce on the side if desired.
