Cooking instructions
Cooking times may vary depending on your oven and the exact weight of your chicken. The timings below are for a 3kg chicken:
- Remove your Christmas Chicken from the fridge 1 hour before you want to cook it.
- Preheat your oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6.
- Rub a little olive oil into the skin of the chicken, season, then squeeze over the juice of half a lemon. Slice the remaining lemon in half and place into the cavity of the chicken (you may also like to add some aromatic herbs such as rosemary or thyme).
- Roast for 20 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 180°C/160°C fan/gas mark 4 and cook for 2 hours 20 minutes. We recommend using a meat thermometer to ensure the meat is cooked thoroughly. The internal temperature should be 72°C when the bird is cooked.
- Remove from the oven and leave to rest in a warm place for at least 20 minutes before carving.
