Ingredients
- 1 (3 1/2-4 lb) whole chickens (or a small turkey)
- 1/4 cup margarine (use hard stick margarine only not soft tub)
- 1/4 cup oil
- 2 tablespoons liquid honey
- 2 tablespoons lime juice (use lime juice only, not lemon juice)
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Lawry's Seasoned Salt (more for inside of cavity)
- black pepper
- 1 small whole lemon (optional but good to use)
Method
- In a saucepan combine oil, margarine, honey, lime juice, garlic powder, paprika and seasoned salt over medium-low heat, stirring until honey is melted; cool slightly.
- Wash chicken then dry with paper towels.
- Season the inside of the chicken cavity with seasoned salt (any amount desired).
- Poke holes all over the lemon then place inside the cavity.
- Using a pastry brush, brush the oil/margarine mixture liberally all over the outside of the chicken (save the remaining oil mixture to baste the chicken while cooking).
- Prepare the chicken for the spit by securing together with heavy string if needed.
- Place the chicken on rotisserie rod and secure tightly.
- Sprinkle with black pepper if desired.
- Cook at 400 degrees for about 40 minutes or until cooked through, basting with the oil/butter mixture while the chicken is cooking (cooking time will vary depending on the size of your chicken or turkey).
- When the chicken has finished cooking, wrap completely in foil and let sit for about 20 minutes before serving (this is an important step to lock in the juices!).
- Delicious!
