Ingredients

medium whole chicken (1.6kg)
for the marinade:
200g greek yogurt
6 cloves garlic
1 fresh green chilli
2 tbsp smoked paprika
1.5 tsp ground coriander
0.5 tsp cayenne pepper
1 lemon juice
1 tbsp olive oil
1.5 tbsp dried oregano
2 tsp sea salt
1 tsp black pepper
1.5 tsp apple cider vinegar

Preparation

Put all the ingredients except the chicken in a blender and blend until smooth
Make a few 1cm deep scores on each part of the chicken and use a pastry brush to brush the chicken all over with the marinade ( both sides) and into the cuts
Put in the fridge to marinate for 6 hours or more and put the rest of the marinade aside for later
Preheat oven to 200degrees
Put the chicken on a baking tray breast-side down and roast upside down for 15 minutes
Turn breast-side up and baste the topside with the marinade again
Put the chicken back in the oven for 20 minutes, then baste again and give the chicken another 10 minutes in the oven
If cooking a large chicken baste again and give the chicken an extra 10 minutes in the oven
Remove from the oven, check the juices run clear, baste the juices over the top and leave to rest for at least 10 mins
If you have marinade left over, gently simmer in a small pan for a few minutes and it makes a greeting dipping sauce for chips and wedges xx
