We had roast chicken dinner on Monday.Its easy to make,filling,tasty and least messy to clean up after dinner!!!
I had been making roast chicken with a saucy marinade all this while.I chanced upon a dry marinade roast recipe and thought I'd give it a try.
With chicken or any non vegetarian food,for that matter...I can chance a risk of trial...my family will gobble up even cooking disasters!Lucky me :)
Usually,the chicken I use, is skinless. This week, chicken with skin on was all that was available...well,roast chicken tastes best when the skin is on...so no complaints!
Okay,now the recipe asks for Bisquick. This can be made at home .I shall share the recipe for Bisquick also.
The idea of baking the chicken with a sort of dry-ish marinade,at a high temperature for a shorter time is to get a beautiful crunchy crust,while keeping it soft and juicy inside.
The Bisquick recipe that I have ,asks for a hint of sugar.This gives a beautiful caramalised flavor to the dish.
This was a new flavor for my taste buds,so I am pretty excited about this recipe.
For the BISQUICK,we need
1 and 1/2cups. all purpose flour1tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
2tsp. sugar,I used powdered jaggery
2 tsp vegetable oilsalt to taste
Mix all the ingredients and rub to make a crumbly mixture.This is bisquick and can be used in many baking recipes.If you make more than you need to use,keep the rest in your fridge.Can be used to make fluffy pan cakes.,biscuits etc
