Historical recipe record without an accepted exact episode or contestant association.
Ingredients
- 3 poussin or baby chickens, halved
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 3 tbsp peri peri sauce
- 2 tsp dried rosemary
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- Mixed vegetables, cut into bite sized pieces
- 4 unpeeled cloves garlic
- 2 sprigs rosemary, chopped
- Olive oil
Method
- Coat the poussin halves with the measured olive oil, peri-peri sauce, dried rosemary and chopped garlic. Season, cover and marinate in the refrigerator for a few hours.
- Heat the oven to 220°C (gas 7). Arrange the poultry skin-side up in a roasting tin and roast, turning as necessary, until each portion is safely cooked through; use the source's 45-minute timing only as a guide.
- In a separate roasting tin, coat the mixed vegetables, whole unpeeled garlic cloves and fresh rosemary with enough olive oil to cover them lightly.
- Roast the vegetables for 45–50 minutes, turning if needed, until tender and caramelised. Serve with the cooked poussin.
