A friend of mine told me you can cook chicken without adding anything to it (no spices, no sauces, no marinating) and leaving it to bake all night. (In silver foil??)
Anyone hear of that? Anyone try it?
(We keep kosher and so our chicken always has some salty flavor to it from the start.)
Any help would be much appreciated!Looking for a specific chicken recipe?
Theoretically you can roast chicken without any sort of flavoring at all. The only problem is that that is a little simple for anyone to make a proper printed recipe out of it, although French cookbooks do occasionally include a recipe for simple roast chicken. Cooking without added flavor also results in a chicken that is largely bland save any special rearing methods. You are just relying on whatever flavor that chicken had in it due to the way it was raised as well as its fat content. The chemical reactions created when food is roasted at a high temperature will also add some flavor, but not much compared to seasoned chicken.
As for cooking a chicken overnight, it really wouldn't be possible in this case. A kosher chicken is brined, which will add some moisture but not enough to cook for a long period of time. Roasting and barbecuing low and slow is possible, but it requires some efforts to keep it moist. Traditionally foods that require long periods of low temperature cooking have significant amounts of fat to keep them moist, as well as some outside help from the cook.Looking for a specific chicken recipe?
Sure...you can dry roast anything.Beef,chicken,pork...with or without the foil.You must be baking this at 200 degrees over night???or you can do it for any hour at a higher temperature.
It's just like cooking it in an altra shamm of sorts.And food kept over 160 degrees will not form bacteria,only at a lower temp.this will happen.
I cook turkeys that way, all night, but a chicken is too small to cook that way.
For turkeys, wrap tightly in several layers of heavy duty foil.
I preheat the oven at 500 degrees. Add the turkey, let it cook an hour, then turn oven down to 200 degrees. DO NOT OPEN THE OVEN DOOR. It cooks all night and is super moist and tender the next day.
I would not try this with a chicken, it would be chicken mush I am afraid.
I have to tell ya, this doesn't sound like it would taste very good..i like my chicken seasoned or bbq'd.
Take a look at this free ebook with 490 award winning recipes, maybe you can find what you're looking for in it.
you can cook chicken without any spices .just on its own,
but depending on the size of your chicken it only takes approx two hours to cook, it would be frazzled if you cook all night,
No way
Do you have an instant read thermometer?
First a disclaimer: It is recommended by the powers that be, that chicken (inside) be cooked to 180 F.
That means you have to heat the oven to about 425 to 450.
If it cookes too long, it will get dry.
You should never cook chicken at low temperatures, because of the bacterias (salmonella).
no...good luck...try it for yourself and see,,,I'd use medium heat though...and I assume it's a whole chicken! be sure it's in a pan.....just sounds like covering to keep it moist...although if you wrap it in foil...it will probably stick to the skin...a real mess...use wax paper between the bird and the foil.
no because you might get samonelia because it would have to be at low heat to cook over night
Chicken cooks so fast I can't imagine cooking it all night! It doesn't make sense, must be a very special recipe. I wouldn't want chicken that's been that warm for that long. Botulism comes to mind.
