Beer-Baked Chicken

Chicken baked on a beer bottle is a Soviet home classic and is loved by thousands of people. And no wonder – a perfect crunchy crust, exceedingly juicy and tender meat, tempting appearance and little effort to make. Due to the beer the chicken becomes beautifully moist and gets a slight bread flavor. Besides, the excess fat is melted in the process of cooking, thus making this dish suitable for those who are on a diet.

Ингредиенты

• 1.4 kg chicken
• 0.5 l beer
• 1 tsp red pepper
• 1 tsp khmeli-suneli
• salt

Способ приготовления

• Prepare the ingredients.

• Wash the chicken thoroughly; pat it dry with paper towels. Combine salt with the spices.

• Rub the chicken with the spice mixture, both inside and outside.

• Remove the sticker from the bottle and pour 2/3 of the beer into a bowl. Add 1 tsp of spices to the remaining beer (we recommend doing it in the sink and being very careful). Put the chicken on the bottle, and then to a deep pan. Pour the reserved beer to the pan and add a glass of water.

• Put the chicken to the very bottom of the cold oven set the temperature on 374 F and bake 1h 10 mins – 1h 40mins depending on the size of the chicken. Check the doneness piercing the chicken under the wing. If the juice is clear, the chicken is ready. If the top starts burning but the chicken is still raw, cover it with foil.

• Remove the cooked chicken from the oven; let it cool for 10-15 mins. Carefully take it off the bottle and put onto a serving dish.

• Our beer-baked chicken is ready! Enjoy your meal!
