    AJH85: I use any size chook and just adjust the steaming time to longer if it's bigger

    I use this recipe all the time - steam it for 50-60 mins depending on size of chicken - moist juicy chicken every time plus the added bonus of having 1 litre of chicken stock. Grill the chicken under the grill for a few mins if you want a crispy skin

    Could really taste the lemon and incredibly juicy.

    I don't know how much mine weighed and it was huge but I cooked it for 1.15 minutes and it was still juicy and delicious.

    How long would a 2kg chicken take roughly?

    It was a nice recipe, however the skin wasn't crispy and gross. I did cook it for another 10 mins and it was perfectly  cooked... Perfect with the beetroot salad in the basic cookbook, for a chicken beetroot salad.
