Amaretto Chicken

Submitted by ~*Sarah*~

"Hubby and I came up with this using the standard Tortured Chicken recipe as a base and adding some of the Amereto we'd bought the day before to the mix. A sweet chicken that was just as good hot as it was cold- even a friend's kids were picking the meat off of the bones."

 

• Ready In: 1hr 45mins
• Ingredients: 6
• Yields: 1 Roaster Chicken

ingredients

• 1 cup Amaretto
• 1⁄2 cup brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons salt
• 2 tablespoons pepper
• 1 roasting chicken
• cooking spray

directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 (F) and make sure rack's low enough to hold chicken.
2. Clean the chicken inside and out, removing gibblets and other internal organs.
3. Pat dry with papertowls.
4. Mix Amaretto, salt, pepper and brown sugar together untill sugar is disolved and rub/brush onto the chicken covering all of it.
5. Save any left over Amaretto mix for basting while chicken is in the oven.
6. Line your cooking pan with foil for easy clean up and spray with cooking spray.
7. Place chicken on its back in the pan and place your Thermometer in the bird.
8. The chicken will be done when the internal temperature is 180 (F) which, depending on your oven can take from 45 min to 1 1/2 hours.
9. Remove chicken from oven when done and let cool before cutting.
