Successful Roast
Dear Tiris,
Thank you for sharing your Roasted Chicken recipe. I tried it tonight and WOW, what a success! It was the juiciest and most flavorful roasted chicken I have ever done (I've roasted chicken before, but none of them even came close to how good this was).
I modified the recipe a bit by using Cornish Game Hen--I think this is the closest we have to native chicken. I roasted two at the same time because Cornish Hen are small. I rubbed the chicken with salt, pepper, rosemarie and garlic powder, and I stuffed it with just spring onions and lemongrass. The smell of lemongrass filled the house, it made my stomach growl the whole time the chicken was roasting.
The sauce I used to baste the chicken was a combination of the drippings, soy sauce, lemon and a little bit of honey, and it gave the skin just a hint of sweetness. Overall, the roasted chicken was so finger-lickin' good, the hub said it was better than Max's. I thought it was waayyy better than Max's. I did not want to leave the dinner table until I finish all of it, but I have to save some for our lunch tomorrow. I cannot wait!
I think I'll be making more roasted chicken in the future. This also inspired the hub to revisit his Soy-braised Chicken, which he does very well, by the way! I thought, "hmmm...bring it on!"
Thanks again and best regards!
Liza

Thank you, Cinds! I don't know if you've ever had Manok ni San Pedro from home. That one is really yummylicious! You should try it the next time you visit Bohol. I'm sure your girls will love it too!
Liz, lamia ani tanawon uy! Suya ko you found lemongrass. Did you rub butter underneath the skin? Nice touch pud tong honey with the soy sauce, I don't have any at home. I should try it. Yes, cornish hen are tender too... excited nako I will make chicken for thanksgiving. No turkey for our household LOL =)
