Chicken

Sweet Chili Glaze

Method

Preparation of Chicken

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for roasting the chicken.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Chicken

    Rinse the half chicken under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels. Place it in a roasting pan.

  3. 3

    Season the Chicken

    In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and chopped rosemary. Rub this mixture all over the chicken, ensuring it's well coated.

Sweet Chili Glaze

  1. 4

    Make the Glaze

    In a saucepan over medium heat, combine sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, honey, lime juice, and minced garlic. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes until slightly thickened.

  2. 5

    Glaze the Chicken

    Brush some of the sweet chili glaze over the chicken before placing it in the oven.

Roasting the Chicken

  1. 6

    Roast the Chicken

    Place the chicken in the preheated oven and roast for about 1 hour or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Baste the chicken with the sweet chili glaze every 20 minutes.

Preparation of Regular Side

  1. 7

    Prepare the Potatoes

    While the chicken is roasting, wash and dice the potatoes into small cubes. Place them in a bowl.

  2. 8

    Season the Potatoes

    Drizzle the diced potatoes with olive oil, and season with salt and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.

  3. 9

    Roast the Potatoes

    Spread the seasoned potatoes on a baking sheet and roast in the oven alongside the chicken for about 30-40 minutes or until golden brown and tender, tossing halfway through.

Serving

  1. 10

    Serve the Dish

    Once the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve the roasted half chicken with the remaining sweet chili glaze and the roasted potatoes, garnished with fresh parsley.
