Ingredients
- 3.5 lb chicken shopping list
- 3 teaspoons chopped red chilies shopping list
- 3 cloves garlic shopping list
- 2 teaspoons peppercorns, crushed shopping list
- 2 teaspoons soft brown sugar shopping list
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce shopping list
- 2 teaspoons ground turmeric shopping list
- 1 tablespoon lime juice shopping list
- (1 oz) butter, chopped shopping list
How to make it
- Preheat the oven to moderate 180oC (350oF / Gas 4). Using a large cleaver, cut the chicken in half by cutting down the backbone and along the breastbone. To prevent the wings from burning, tuck them underneath. Place the chicken, skins side up, on a rack in a baking dish and bake for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine the chili, garlic, peppercorns and sugar in a food processor or mortar and pestle and process briefly, or pound, until smooth. Add the soy sauce, turmeric and lime juice, and process in short bursts, or stir if using a mortar and pestle, until combined.
- Brush the spice mixture over the chicken, dot it with the butter pieces and bake it for another 25 to 30 minutes, or until cooked through and rich red. Serve warm or at room temperature.
