Roast Chicken - Miele Combi Steam Oven Recipe

"Poulet"

SEE REVIEW BELOW

2 hrs 25 minutes
NOTE: Cookbook claims 58-72 minutes, but it read 2:25 when I started the program!

  • 1 whole chicken (1200 g or ~2.5 lbs)
  • 2 Tbsp. oil
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Paprika

Recipe

  1. Wash the inside and outside of the chicken and pat dry with paper towels.
  2. Combine the oil with the spices and then rub the chicken inside and out with it.
  3. Place in the oven with breast side up and bake.

Program

AUTO MASTERCHEF >> MEAT >> POULTRY >> GOURMET CHICKEN >> ROAST

Review

I am mystified by why the cookbook said a maximum of 72 minutes, but the program was set for 2:25. That threw off our dinner plans and I wound up having to save the chicken to make salad with the next day. The meat was good for chicken salad, but I don't know how it was on the day-of. The legs seemed a bit dried out, which is not surprising because that seems like a long time to cook such a small bird. It may have done better if I had trussed it. Overall seems like a better approach for a larger bird.
