It is really simple - maybe the most easiest way to roast a chicken, but the end result is quite interesting. The recipe goes like that: You need: 1 kg of iodized salt (a.k.a. table salt) 1.5 kg whole chicken Spill the whole packet of salt in a clean baking dish - the thickness of the salt should be approximately a 1 cm. Split the chicken's rip cage and open the chicken, so it can nicely lie down in the baking dish. (Do not salt the chicken!!!) Place it in the baking dish just as it is - face down (or I should say belly down). Bake it in the oven for approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes at around 250C. The chicken gets really really soft with very interesting flavor, reminding of hot summer evenings at the sea. It is almost rudimentary to pair this chicken with a pint of light beer.
