Method
For the Chicken
Prepare the Marinade
In a mixing bowl, combine minced garlic, paprika, cumin, black pepper, salt, white vinegar, olive oil, lime juice, and chopped cilantro. Mix well to form a marinade.
Marinate the Chicken
Place the whole chicken in a large resealable plastic bag or a dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
Roast the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on a roasting pan. Roast in the preheated oven for about 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the skin is golden brown.
Rest and Serve
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving. Serve with fries and salad.
