Salt Baked Chicken
On a recent trip to Las Vegas we heard about the salt baked prime rib at Michael Mina's restaurant American Fish. This inspired us to create a salt baked chicken.
Ingredients:
10 pounds of kosher salt
1 whole fryer chicken
mixed herbs to season
butternut squash
3 Tbsp water
4 egg whites
In a bowl mix 10 Pounds of salt, 3 Tbsp of water, 4 egg whites, and chopped herbs.
Lay a layer of salt on the bottom of the pan you plan to roast the chicken in. Stuff the chicken with chopped butternut squash and then bury the chicken in the 10 pounds of salt. Bake at 350 for 75 minutes. Allow some time to cool then break the salt layer, wipe the salt off the chicken and enjoy this moist, tasty chicken.
Some improvements to the recipe we plan to try for future we plan on trying in the future include using the herbs to create a layer between the chicken and the salt, trying different vegetables to stuff the chicken with, and also try the recipe with sea salt.
