Bea's Swiss Chalet Style Rotisserie Chicken Marinade

Pink_Diamond's Note:

I have been playing with this spice combination for a while now and I think I have it as close as I'm going to get it to the famous Canadian ''Swiss Chalet'' rotisserie chicken. I hope you all enjoy it :) I serve this with my Bea's Version of Swiss Chalet Dipping Sauce Where I have listed instant tomato soup mix, I use the lipton tomato cup-a-oup mix, I sift it to take the croutons out. I tried entering this in the ingredients and it would not accept it that way. This recipe is enough to marinade two 2.5 lbs chickens or one 5 lb chicken.

I have never had Swiss Chalet chicken to compare, but this version is absolutely delicious! I cannot find the Cup a Soup here anymore, so with Pink's permission, I used 2 tsp. of tomato paste, with great results. I used my outdoor rotisserie. Great flavor and meat was very moist. (I used my injector and injected some of the marinade into the bird just before cooking). I also subbed onion powder for the onion salt.

This was so great on my rotisserie chicken, since I had a larger chicken I doubled amounts couldn't find tomato soup mix so I used dried tomato spice that I purchase in my bulk spice store, I omitted the allspice I may give it a try next time, I love this mix and will use it again, thank you for sharing Pinkie!
