Here’s Curtis’ tips to make a great-tasting chook
Curtis Stone’s chicken tips
1. Rub the chicken with oil
For perfectly golden skin, rub the chicken all over with oil and season generously. This helps it crisp up nicely in the oven.

2. Roast it on a bed of veggies
For a great-tasting chook, roast it with onions, celery and garlic. The chicken takes on their flavours as it cooks.

3. Check it’s cooked
The chicken is ready when it reaches 73°C or when the juices run clear when the thickest part of the thigh is pierced.
