👨🍳 Istruzioni
- 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Clean and wash the chicken thoroughly, using vinegar and water if desired, then rinse well.
- 2
Squeeze the juice of one lime over the chicken, both inside and out. Place the cut-up garlic clove, half onion, half bell pepper, and celery stalk into the cavity of the chicken.
- 3
In a small bowl, combine the Complete Seasoning, paprika, garlic salt, Mrs. Dash, turmeric, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
- 4
Rub the seasoning mixture all over the chicken, ensuring it's well coated. Let the chicken marinate for at least 10 minutes while the oven preheats.
- 5
Place the chicken in a baking pan. You can truss the legs if desired. Add the remaining lime, cut into wedges, into the cavity or around the chicken.
- 6
Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork or knife. Baste the chicken with its own juices occasionally during baking for extra moisture.
- 7
Once cooked, let the chicken rest for 10-15 minutes before carving and serving. Serve with your favorite Bahamian sides.
