Recipe's preparation

  1.  

    1. Rinse the chicken cavity and then pat dry.


    2.  Pierce the skin several times.

    3.  Place the onion pieces, celery stick & lemon pieces in the cavity.

    4. Gently stretch the wings & drumsticks away from the body to loosen joints.

    5. Tie the drumsticks together with a rubber band and place the bird into the Varoma.

    6. In the TM bowl, combine the honey, soy sauce & garlic and mix on speed 7 for 5 secs.  

    7. Using a pastry brush, baste the chicken generously with sauce.
    Don't forget to do the sides and leg/wing joints tmrc_emoticons.)
    If any sauce left pour on top of chicken.

    8. Add water to TM bowl and cook on Varoma, speed 2, 60mins.

    9. Remove chicken from Varoma & place on a baking tray and place into a hot oven (180 degrees) for 10mins. This is to give your chicken a "golden" finish. Should you not wish to do this you could just place your chicken into your thermoserver and let it sit for the 10mins.


    ** We serve this with oven roasted vegetables however it's also nice to shred to put into a salad or as filling for sandwiches tmrc_emoticons.)

    My go to thermo roast chicken recipe, lovely subtle flavours that can be adjusted to taste as required. I just adjust chicken cook time according to weight.

    I've only had my thermomix for 4 weeks and everything I've cooked on a daily basis has been amazing .. This chicken was so disappointing.. It was a 1.9kg chicken, cooked for 70 mins, followed recipe exact but it was tasteless and the texture was not nice.... Will not be cooking again

    Mine needed an extra 15 to 20 mins cooking. Went down very well though! Agreed the gravy made from some of the leftover steaming water was a huge hit. Thanks for the recipe!

    So I totally cheated .... I couldnt be bothered making the sauce for basting and my chicken was frozen. I added 1.5ltr to bowl & threw the frozen chicken into varoma bowl, set for 60mins & walked away. Added an extra 30mins (from frozen remember) and WOW it was delish. Didnt have time to brown in the oven. It was cooked perfectly. Hubby & kids loved it and they normally complain when its dry.
    I made a delicous gravy from the water below as it was very flavorsome, just added to a pot with some flour & a bit of vege stock paste.
    Delish dinner and i will now be always cooking my chicken this way. (Promise ill try basting it too as it sounds amazing)

    Yum, chicken was subtle in flavour, but gravy is awesome, kids loved this Smile i used 500g of the cooking juices, 45g flour, 1 tsp of edc stock, 7 mins, 90 degrees, speed 3, for the gravy whilst the chicken was browning up in the oven. Be nice with some freshly baked rolls..

    Delicious! I did a 2.3kg chicken and added 15 mins to cooking time in Veroma tray then oven for 15 mins. Then made an awesome gravy in the bowl using flour and about half the juice. Amazing

    I made this last night, it was so quick and easy and OMG the most tender and juicy chciken was the fabulous result. Thank you so much. Will never do roast chicken in the oven again. It was a hit with the whole family even the fussy 8yo that doesn't eat much at all loved it.

    After reading all the great reviews for this dish I decided to give it a whirl tonight. It's been an hour since dinner and hubby is still raving about how awesome it was.

    I made gravy with 1ltr of the liquid. Added flour and vegetable stock. It was also awesome.

    Thanks for a great recipe
