Indian Style – Whole chicken Roast
There are many versions of a roasted whole chicken world wide and this Indian style is one of its kind with Indian flavors. It is Juicy,crispy,spicy and full of flavors.
Preparation Time : 15 minutes
Cooking Time : 60 minutes
Ingredients :
- Curd- 1/2 cup
- Black pepper powder- 4tsp
- Ginger paste -1tbsp
- Garlic paste- 1tbsp
- Red Chili powder-2tsp
- Cumin Powder-2tsp
- Coriander Powder-2tsp
- Oil – 4tsp
- Onions
- Mint leaves
- Cilantro ( coriander)
- Chat masala
- Salt as per taste
Procedure:
- Mix salt,black pepper powder,Red chili powder,cumin powder,coriander powder,ginger & garlic paste,curd , oil in to a smooth paste.
- Rinse your chicken and pat it dry with a paper towel.
- Using a knife, Poke holes all over the chicken, as this helps marination go into the chicken.
- Rub the marinade on the chicken, under the skin and cavity as well.
- Cover and marinate the chicken for at least 2 hours or overnight. I highly recommend marinating it overnight in the refrigerator.
- Take out the marinated chicken from the refrigerator at least 45 minutes before placing it in the oven.
- Transfer the chicken in to a baking dish and brush some oil on the chicken.
- Fill the cavity with diced onions,mint leaves & cilantro (coriander) leaves. This will give a nice aroma to your chicken.
- Bake in Pre-heated oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes (15 minutes each side) and broil for 20 minutes (10 minutes each side).
- Once cooked, cover with aluminium foil and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.
- sprinkle some chat masala on top of chicken for a tangy flavor on a serving plate.
So have you ever tried any Indian dish??If yes then let me know about your experience in the comment section below
Note :
When buying a chicken ,make sure to keep the skin on ,the skin ensures that the chicken remains juicy and doesn’t dry out.

I love whole roasted chicken, especially if you get that crunchy skin! I have never had it Indian style before, but I love Indian seasoning, so I’ll have to give it a try!
momsthumbreviews
I’ve had a really good lamb curry, and do enjoy a lot of the seasonings. This chicken looks amazing! Do you think it could be cooked in a crock pot and get the same crispiness?

A great recipe for big family dinners in India. The addition of lemon and spices is perfect for the taste buds. And it is perfect for festive holidays like Christmas. Some wine and some crunchy salad will be the perfect accompaniments.
