INGREDIENTS FOR CHICKEN

  • 1 whole chicken without giblets
  • ½ cup vinegar
  • ½ cup ground chili pepper
  • ½ cup freshly made garlic paste (pressed garlic)
  • ½ cup vegetable oil for marinade
  • 1 cup dark beer
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Cumin
  • ½ cup dark soy sauce

SIDE DISH

  • 6 large white cooking potatoes, peeled and cut into thick fries
  • 2 cups vegetable oil for frying potatoes
  • 1 iceberg lettuce (roughly chopped)
  • 3 medium tomatoes (sliced)
  • ½ cucumber (peeled and sliced)
  • Salad dressing

INSTRUCTIONS

  • 1
    Add the dry ground ingredients for the chicken to a bowl.
  • 2
    Mix all marinade ingredients (vinegar, soy sauce, vegetable oil, dark beer, ground chili pepper, garlic, coarse salt, pepper, and cumin) in a large bowl and stir well.
  • 3
    Place the chicken in a large roasting pan or bowl, pour the marinade over it to cover all parts of the chicken, and let it marinate overnight in the refrigerator.
  • 4
    Remove the chicken from the refrigerator, brush it with marinade one last time, and place it in a roasting pan. Add water to the bottom of the pan to prevent the chicken from drying out. Preheat the oven to (200 °C) for 10 minutes and place the pan with the chicken in the center of the oven. Roast for 2 hours or until cooked through, ensuring the chicken is cooked inside (check with a skewer) and the skin is nicely browned and crispy.
  • 5
    Fry the potatoes in a generous amount of vegetable oil until golden brown. Place on a paper towel. Season with salt to taste.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR SIDE DISH

  • 1
    Arrange the lettuce, tomato, and cucumber and mix with salad dressing of your choice.
  • 2
    Once the chicken is done, cut it into individual pieces (usually quarters) and serve with fries, salad, and sauces.
