With this recipe, anyone can create a fantastic whole roasted chicken right in their own kitchen. Achieve that perfect crispy skin and tender, juicy interior for a memorable meal.
Main Ingredients- 1 whole chicken
Seasoning- Herb salt, to taste
- Herb salt, to taste
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, thoroughly wash the whole chicken. Pat it dry to remove excess moisture. Then, using a fork, prick the chicken all over, including under the skin. This step helps the seasoning penetrate deeply for better flavor and ensures a more tender texture.
Step 2
Generously sprinkle herb salt all over the prepared chicken. Make sure to season both the outside and the cavity.
Step 3
Wearing disposable gloves, rub the herb salt into the chicken’s meat and skin, ensuring it’s evenly distributed. Pay special attention to getting it under the skin and into all the nooks and crannies for maximum flavor.
Step 4
Place the seasoned chicken in your air fryer basket. Cook at 200°C (392°F) for 30 minutes. Cooking time may vary slightly depending on the size of your chicken. Consider flipping it halfway through for even browning.
Step 5
If you have an ‘i-Net’ air fryer model with a rotisserie function (the rotating spit), prepare the accessory tool indicated by the red marking. Using this feature allows the chicken to rotate, ensuring more uniform cooking and a delightfully roasted finish.
Step 6
Carefully skewer the chicken onto the rotisserie spit, ensuring it’s centered. Secure the chicken firmly so it doesn’t wobble during rotation.
Step 7
Insert the loaded rotisserie spit into your air fryer. Cook at 200°C (392°F) for 30 minutes. As the chicken rotates, it will become golden brown and crispy on the outside while staying wonderfully moist inside.
Step 8
Your delicious air fryer whole roasted chicken is ready! It’s best enjoyed hot. This dish makes a perfect accompaniment to drinks or a wonderful centerpiece for a family meal.
