two? Drip jam blood at stumps for an authentically dismembered look?

GARLIC MUD CHICKEN BGNJ11A

Recipe By :
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Chicken Chinese
Main Dish

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
3 pound Roaster Chicken
3 garlic*
1 tablespoon Cajun Spices
3/4 cup Olive oil — **
1 cup All purpose flour**

Preheat oven to 325 *large heads of (about 50 cloves) **or as needed As the
coating hardens and bakes on the chicken, the flavors and juices are all
sealed in.. Best chicken you ever ate. Put peeled garlic cloves in blender
with 1/2 cup of olive oil and Cajun spices. Blend until creamy consistency,
add more oil if needed. Place the oil and garlic mixture in a large bowl. Add
flour slowly, mixing until a very heavy, thick, smooth mud like consistency is
achieved. With string, tie the chicken wings and the legs tight against sides
of carcass. Using a spatula, completely coat chicken with Garlic Mud, as
evenly as possible, using it all. Fill in all crevices between wings and legs.
Place on a rack, breast side up, in a pan and put in preheated oven. Roast
whole chicken about 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours or until coating is browned well. If
using cutup chicken, coat each piece very well, place on a rack and roast for
a shorter time, until chicken coating is brown. Serve chicken with the crisp
pieces of Garlic coating .. I would suggest using a vertical roaster.

It is a wire stand that the chicken slips down on and is vertical. Set your
bottom rack as low as possible to accommodate in oven. Even a lower heat
setting with a longer roast time is even better. >>> This is a modification of
an old Chinese recipe called Beggers Chicken. They used mud to encase
it…Then put into a hot bed of coals to cook…. FROM: MARTY FEINS (BGNJ11A)
