3. Insert stuffing into the cavity of the chicken and place the chicken into the varoma.
4. Brush chicken all over with Olive Oil.

Roast Chicken
Tip
** You may need to cook for longer if your chicken is larger, or if it has been bought frozen and has not be completely thawed. I found that 70 mins was perfect for a 1.8kg chicken that had not been frozen.
Keep an eye on the water in the jug to ensure it does not get too low, this wasn't an issue when I did it but I have heard of others who have boiled the Thermomix dry.

Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

Comments
Have only made the stuffing and it has worked out perfectly every time.
Perfection! Made the gravey per tips in comments and it was also amazing. Thank you
Chicken was cooked beautifully and was so moist! I sauteed the onions first in some butter, removed and allowed to cool. Then added the remainder of the stuffing mix, also added a stick of celery! I used 500mls of left over liquid, 30g flour and 1 Tbsp chicken stock paste for gravy, consistancy was great, not so thick and floury. Kept the remaining liquid and made a leek and broccoli soup the next day. Thanks for sharing such a great recipe. xx
Great recipe, the stuffing has a great flavour, finished in the oven for 20 mins
Delicious! Will definitely cook again ☺️
I have 2.4 kg chook how long should I cook it for
Thank you for the ideas to add vegies and make gravy. I used soy sauce to flavour gravy and the whole meal was beautiful... I must do meal again so thank you .
This was absolutely delicious and the stuffing was unbelievably yummy! I added veggies in to steam at the same time and it made dinner so easy. I also used some of the water left in the bowl to add to gravy powder for a yummy gravy and kept the remaining water to use as chicken stock. Will definitely do this recipe again.
Super easy and yum.
I didnt do stuffing but added cellery and herbs into the Bird. it was very moist and went very crispy skin in the oven. I also added 6 small potatoes peeled and halved into the basket at 40 mins to go and added them to the roasting pan.
at 30 mins to go, i added carrots and pumpkin to the varoma with the chicken. These also went into the oven.
made gravy with 500 mls of retained water, 50 g flour and salt to taste. 4 mins/90 degrees/ speed 3. nezt time will not add salt, but a dash or two of soy sauce for salt and colour.
excellent varoma meal...l
I made this recipe in the TM35 and used a 1.4kg chicken, it was delicious. I cooked it for 55min in the varoma and then 15min the oven to help golden it. I cooked some roast carrots an potato to go with it
