60 Weeks Until .... Number 19

This week I have tried out a new roast chicken recipe.

Lemon, Ginger and Coriander Roast Chicken
One 1.5kg chicken
2 Lemons
2 Cloves of garlic
2 teaspoons freshly grated ginger
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh coriander

Slice the lemons finely and slide them under the skin of the breast of the chicken
Crush the garlic and ginger together and mix with the coriander to make a paste.   Place this under the chicken skin with the lemon.

Roast the chicken at 190 degrees celsius for one hour

1 cup chicken stock
2 tablespoons soya sauce
1 tablespoon mirin

Reduce the oven heat to 170 degrees.   Combine the stock, soy and mirin and pour over the chicken.
Continue to roast for another 50 minutes to one hour

Serve with steamed chinese vegetables, rice noodles.

The HD3QBEM says she prefers my "other roast chicken recipe" by which I think she means the one with the orange date and pistachio stuffing.   Therefore this new recipe may not be repeated chez nous :-(
