Secrets to marinating a whole chicken
There are several rules for marinating chicken in the oven. By following them, you will always receive wonderful dish as a result.
- The duration of marinating depends on the weight of the homemade carcass. The main question is always how long to marinate meat. If you plan to bake the whole carcass, take the time to soak it in the marinade the night before. If you have wings or breasts for dinner, you can leave them in the sauce for an hour. Thighs require more time - from 2 to 4 hours.
- Stop marinating oven-baked chicken in mayonnaise! With this simple and seemingly successful ingredient, you completely kill its individual taste, which turns out to be the same every time. Moreover, mayonnaise contains acetic acid, which when baked makes the fibers hard and they begin to taste bitter.

- The easiest way to marinate a whole chicken or leg for the oven is to mix 1 or several types of spices with vegetable oil, bathe the meat in this mixture and leave for a couple of hours. Depending on the seasonings you choose, choose your oil. For example, olive oil goes well with basil and paprika, sunflower oil goes well with hot spices, and corn oil goes well with all types of marinating.
- Avoid salt! Every marinade recipe for oven-fried chicken requires the presence of salt. You just need to add it correctly. Do not salt the meat before long-term marinating; it is better to add salt 10 minutes before you plan to put the carcass in the oven. Otherwise, the dish will turn out tough and dry.
