Whole Roasted Orange Chicken
Serves 4 | Prep 4hr | Cooking 1hr30
Our Wilder chicken works wonderfully with the rich citrus flavours from the orange, for this whole roasted orange chicken. Great in the winter with roasted potatoes, or cold with a wild salad and corn in the summer. Remember to marinate for as long as you can to allow the flavours to absorb into the rich creamy chicken meat.
