SPICED ORANGE ROAST CHICKEN
Pop this one-dish wonder in the oven for Sunday lunch and you'll be able to relax while it becomes infused with a delicious citrus flavour. I'd probably whisk the juice mixture together before adding it to the chicken, just to make sure the honey is well incorporated. Prep time is 15 mins plus 1 hour marinating time. Use 5 tablespoons to measure 80ml. Source: Australian Good Taste magazine September 2006

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees. In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, heat the vegetable oil. Add the split peas and cook, stirring frequently, until lightly browned, about 40 seconds.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: For best results, use a whole chicken that is between 3 and 4 pounds. A larger chicken will take longer to cook and may not cook evenly.
- Prepare the chicken: Rinse the chicken inside and out and pat it dry. Remove any excess fat and giblets. Season the chicken inside and out with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices.
- Roast the chicken: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the chicken in a roasting pan and roast for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue to roast the chicken for another 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Let the chicken rest: Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Roast spiced chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can ensure that your chicken turns out perfectly cooked and flavorful every time. So next time you're looking for a simple but satisfying meal, give roast spiced chicken a try!
