Ingredients
Marinade Sauce
Stuffing
Instructions
Clean and dry the chicken with paper towels. Rub the chicken on the inside and out with salt to taste. Adjust accordingly.
Combine all of the marinade ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly.
Inside and out, rub the chicken with the marinade, and then place it in a large resealable bag. Place the chicken in the bag with the marinade. Seal it and refrigerate it overnight.
Remove the chicken from the bag and stuff it with crushed lemongrass, green onion bunches, crushed garlic, and thinly sliced onion. Set aside the leftover marinade.
Cook the chicken for 1 hour and 20 minutes in a 200°C preheated oven with the rotisserie function. If you don’t have the rotisserie function place chicken in a wire rack above a baking tray.
Combine the marinade previously set aside with 2 tablespoon of cooking oil, and then use it together with the drippings to bast the chicken every 20 minutes until cooked.
Transfer to a serving plate. Serve hot with lechon manok sauce or any favorite sauce.
