CENTRAL AMERICAN ROASTED CHICKEN



Central American Roasted Chicken image

I use a traditional sauce used in central american to roast chicken or turkey with. Add only enough sauce to cover the chicken because if you add too much sauce to the roasting pan, you will end up braising the chicken in sauce instead of roasting it.

Categories     Whole Chicken

Time 1h45m

Yield 5-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 whole large chopped tomato
1/2 chopped green bell pepper
1/2 chopped white onion
1 chopped celery
4 sprigs cilantro
1/2 cup tomato sauce
3 -4 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon chicken bouillon powder
1 whole roasting chicken
salt, to taste
pepper
cumin

Steps:

  • Preheat oven 350°F.
  • Put all veggies, tomato sauce and chicken bullion in blender and blend until smooth.
  • Wash chicken and pat dry. Season chicken with salt, pepper and cumin. Place in a roasting pan and using your hands, rub butter in the pockets underneath the chicken skin. Pour enough sauce over chicken to cover it completly but not so much that it pools up at the bottom of the roasting pan. Cover with foil.
  • Bake about 1 hr and take foil off. Baste chicken with pan juices and let cook about 20 more minutes or until chicken is brown and cooked thru (usually about 170-180 f. with a meat thermometer).

CENTRAL AMERICAN YELLOW RICE AND CHICKEN



Central American Yellow Rice and Chicken image

Delicious AUTHENTIC rice recipe from an experienced AUTHENTIC central american cook! I use this side dish for family gatherings and special occasions. This recipe was handed down to me from my grandmother and hope you enjoy it as much as I do! It calls for PARBROILED rice not regular long grain rice. It is better to use parbroiled as it will not become all mushy and pasty as regular rice does when you make the mistake of adding too much water (as many of us rice cooks do!). I reccomend using chicken breast and not any other dark chicken meat because when you shred dark meat, you get really ugly dark parts and it looks kinda disgusting when served with rice (or any other side dish for that matter). Chicken breast comes out white and clean. When it comes to adding the curry powder, I usually add about 3 tablespoons because I like my rice to come out a nice darker yellow color and I enjoy the taste of curry but it may not suit your palate. You should taste the rice broth as you add the curry to determine if you have added enough curry to suit your taste buds. Don't forget to salt your rice DURING cooking time! If you notice that the water that you added to cook the rice has absorbed and the rice is still a little hard then don't worry and add another 1/4 cup water and extend cooking time about 10 min or until water has been absorbed. You can also add small shrimp to this recipe to give it a little seafood twist (it also tastes great!).
