You can make delicious, juicy, tender, and Crispy Chicken right in your kitchen without deep frying. When you use a Rotisserie Oven to cook a whole chicken it’s also a healthy delicious meal that the whole family will enjoy.

This meal might take some time to cook but it’s well worth the wait. I own the Ronco Showtime Large Capacity Rotisserie Rotisserie Oven and have used it for years.

Rotisserie Ovens cook slowly and evenly making your Chicken moist flavorful meat that is nicely golden brown with crispy skin. It’s Crispy Crunchy Chicken on the outside and tender and moist on the inside.

Make sure to check the internal temperature of the chicken before removing it from the Rotisserie Oven. The internal temperature for chicken should be 165 °. If you don’t have a meat thermometer be sure to get yourself one, they are well worth it.

I have the Powlaken Instant Read Meat Thermometer and it’s wonderful because it is waterproof. The last meat thermometer I owned was not waterproof and I had to be careful every time I cleaned it.

Containing both dark and lean white meat, a whole roasted chicken makes an excellent dinner for all taste buds. While some enjoy the flavorful dark meat and others prefer the lean white breast, most will agree they really look forward to the delicious crispy skin.
