CONVECTION OVEN ROAST CHICKEN (FOR TOASTER OVEN)

Convection Oven Roast Chicken (For Toaster Oven) image

I replaced my regular toaster oven with a convection toaster oven a few years ago and I have to say it was the best thing I could have done. I have used this toaster oven extensively as it does help keep the kitchen cooler then using the big oven. I didn't have any lemons so used limes instead. I used a 5 pound chicken but a 3 1/2-4 pound chicken can also work here.

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1 (5 lb) roasting chickens
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
fresh herb (rosemary, thyme, oregano, marjoram, etc.,1/4-inch sprig)
1 garlic clove, peeled and cut in half
1 small onion, peeled and quartered (about 2 ounces)
4 slices lemon zest (1/2-x-3-inches each)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

Place the toaster oven rack to the lowest position in the oven. Preheat the oven to 400°F on the convection setting.
Remove giblets and neck from cavity of chicken, reserve for another use or discard. Rinse chicken with cold water and pat dry.
Place a baking rack into the broiling pan (that is lined with foil) add 1/4 cup water to the pan and lightly spray the baking rack with cooking spray.
Tuck the wings under and place the chicken on the baking rack pan. Clean work surface and hands with soap and hot water before continuing.
Combine the salt and pepper. Rub half the mixture in the cavity of the chicken; then place the herb sprig(s), garlic halves, onion quarters and lemon zest in the cavity of the chicken.
Loosely tie the legs together. Rub the chicken with the olive oil and remaining salt and pepper. Drizzle with the lemon juice.
Place the chicken in the oven and roast at 400°F for 20 minutes, then lower the temperature to 375°F and continue to roast for an additional 12 minutes per pound longer.
Considering my chicken was 5 lbs. I will roast it for 60 minutes. You will have to calculate the time according to your chicken's weight by multiplying 12 minutes times the size per pound of your chicken.
The Internal temperature of the chicken should be 170°F when tested in the breast, and 180°F when tested in the dark meat.
Juices should run clear.
Turn off oven and remove the chicken to a platter. Let stand 10 - 15 minutes before carving (may cover loosely with foil if desired, but skin will lose its crispness).
Bon Appetit!

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 cup flour
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons season salt
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
1 teaspoon black pepper, as desired
10 bone-in chicken thighs

Steps:

Honestly the above ingredient list is all approximate guesses. I just dumped stuff into the ziplock bag until it looked like seasoned flour.
Take all ingredients above (except for chicken thighs) and dump into a gallon size resealable bag.
close bag, shake to mix well.
preheat your convection oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
Rinse and pat dry your chicken pieces.
Then take chicken pieces (I did three at a time) and drop into your bag of homemade 'shake 'n bake and shake to coat evenly.
lightly oil your broiling pan and then place chicken pieces with space around each one. I personally cooked 6 and then the remaining 4- because that's how much space I had in my broiling pan.
place in convection oven set on BAKE (with convection on) at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 60 minutes.
Enjoy!

Tips:

Choose the right chicken: For optimal results, select a whole chicken weighing between 3 and 4 pounds. Ensure that the chicken is well-trimmed and patted dry before roasting.
Prepare the chicken: Generously season the chicken inside and out with a mixture of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. You can also add a compound butter or olive oil rub for extra flavor.
Preheat the toaster oven: Set the toaster oven to the highest convection setting and preheat it according to the manufacturer's instructions. This will help create a crispy skin and juicy interior.
Roast the chicken: Place the chicken breast-side up on a roasting rack or baking sheet. For even cooking, rotate the chicken halfway through the roasting time.
Check the internal temperature: To ensure that the chicken is cooked safely and thoroughly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The chicken is ready when the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) in the thickest part of the breast and thigh.
Rest the chicken: Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the toaster oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chicken.
