Chicken stuffed with oranges in the oven

Ingredients:

• chicken broth - 1 item;
• whole chilled chicken - 2 kg;
• butter - 70 g;
• oranges - 2 pieces;
• salt, pepper - to taste;
• garlic - 2 cloves;
• rosemary - 2 branches.

Preparation

Before you cook a chicken, stuffed with oranges, the carcass itself should be prepared: rinse, wipe with paper towel, rub it with salt and pepper. Under the skin of the chicken, put pieces of soft butter. We pour chicken with orange juice , and squeezed out slices are placed in the cavity of the bird. We connect the legs of the chicken with a string, or twine.

Garlic is passed through the press and rub the peel of the bird with the resulting puree. Over the carcass and on each side of it we put rosemary twigs. Put the chicken on a baking tray and cover with foil. Bake the chicken first 20 minutes at 180, and after lowering the temperature to 160 degrees and bake the bird 1-1,5 hours. Do not forget every 10-15 minutes to water the chicken with the juice that was released during cooking. 30-40 minutes before the foil is ready to take off and let the bird get brown. If your oven has a Grill mode, then turn it on to get a beautiful golden crust. Before serving, let the chicken "rest" for 15-20 minutes.
