Rotisserie Chicken in a Wood-Fired Brick Oven.
Ingredients:
Whole chicken
Salt
Pepper
Garlic
Olive Oil
Cooking time: 45 minutes to an hour.
Build a medium bed of coals to bring the oven to about 300° F.
Place the chicken on the rod.
Rub the chicken with salt, pepper, and minced garlic, drizzle with olive oil.
Maintain the embers by adding small pieces of wood for about 45 minutes to an hour.
Once removed from the oven give your chicken 5 to 10 minutes to rest. This will allow all the juices to flow back into the meat.
Bon Appétit!
There's nothing like the high heat from the coals combined with the constant rotation to develop all the flavors. The skin will taste like bacon, the white meat will remain juicy, and the light smoke flavor is simply delightful.
