BLG Roasted Chicken (Beer, Lime and Garlic)

Picture
BLG Roasted Chicken
This has become my favorite roasted chicken. The flavor of the beer, lime and garlic combination gives it a nice robust flavor. Injecting the chicken with the marinade keeps it nice and moist.

3-4 pound whole chicken
1/2 cup beer, your favorite brand
1 lime, juiced, seeds removed
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  1. Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Remove the chicken giblets, liver, and neck. Rinse and dry the chicken, place the chicken breast side up on a rack in a roasting pan.
  3. Combine beer, lime juice and garlic powder in small bowl or jar, stir well.
  4. Using a marinade injector, incest marinade throughout the chicken breasts, thighs and legs.
  5. Place chicken breast side down in roasting pan. (Do not place a rack in the pan).
  6. Roast for 45 minutes.  Turn chicken over. Roast for an additional 45 minutes. A meat thermometer placed in chicken thigh should read 180 degrees.
  7. Remove the chicken when done. Cover chicken and let sit 15-20 minutes before carving.
