To make baked chicken tasty, juicy and golden brown, you can’t do without marinade.
We will tell you what trick experienced housewives resort to so that the dish served at the table turns out just like that.
So, in order to prepare the marinade, for a chicken weighing 1.6-1.8 kg you will need about 3 liters of water, in which you should dissolve 3.5 tablespoons of salt and 1 tablespoon of sugar.
Don't forget to use a toothpick to make holes in the carcass, paying special attention to the breast and thighs.
Now immerse the chicken in the marinade prepared in advance and leave for 2-3 hours.
After the specified time, the bird should be removed from the liquid and dried using paper napkins.
Now prepare a mixture of dried garlic, smoked paprika, hot and black peppers - you need to take one teaspoon of each - and add two tablespoons of vegetable oil to the listed ingredients.
Using a culinary brush, apply the resulting mixture to the chicken on all sides, after which you can place the carcass cut in half on a baking sheet and put it in a preheated oven for 45-60 minutes (the temperature and specific time depend on the features of your oven).
