Ingredients

  • 1 whole chicken on the small side
  • 1 tbsp paprika
  • 1 tsp allspice
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp cumin
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 tsp oregano
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced/diced
  • 2 tbsp toasted sesame seed oil sub extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp chicken broth/bone broth (optional for basting after)

Instructions

  • mix all the spices together, with the minced garlic and set aside.
  • prep your chicken, by cleaning it and patting it completely dry with paper towel.
  • set the chicken in an oven-safe dish, and massage the spice rub all over the chicken and into the corners, making sure you get every crevice, including the bottom of the chicken.
  • finish it off with the toasted sesame seed oil, pouring it on top of the chicken.
  • roast in the oven at 250 slowly, for three hours or until chicken is completely cooked (if you're short on time, simply cook this at a higher temperature, between 300-350). after the first hour, remove from the oven and add the 2 tbsp of bone broth, while also basting the rest of the chicken with the broth/drippings. repeat this every thirty mins to an hour, as desired.
