Massaged Chicken

[omnimomma]

I fixed this tonight, and it was great! I don't usually like baked chicken, but everyone in the family said it was good -- really moist.

Massaged Chicken
1 whole chicken or split fryers
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
salt
pepper
garlic powder

Rinse and dry the chicken really well. Massage all surfaces of the chicken with the mayo. Season liberally with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

Bake at 375 degrees about 1 1/2 hour until the skin is crisp and juices run clear. Let stand a few minutes, carve and serve.

Great tasting and 0 carbs!

Omigoodness, thanks for the tip!


So easy and it sounds delicious... I've got a whole chicken waiting, and I was wondering what to do with it.

It really is good. You can use onion powder and paprika as well. I got the idea from Dana Carpender's book, but didn't have the onion powder and paprika so I substituted garlic powder instead.

Re: Massaged Chicken

This recipe sounds very good. I will have to try it when I get out a whole chicken. It sure seems easy.

Thanks for a quick and delicious recipe.

Re: Massaged Chicken

I've decided to try this with chicken wings. The mayo should help the outside crisp while leaving the inside moist. I'm thinking about adding some cajun spices to heat it up a bit.
