Preparation
Chicken Preparation
- Make a marinade from the seasoning, salt, pepper and sugar. Rub it on all sides of the chicken, trying to get your fingers under the skin and into the stomach cavity. The chicken should be as well-seasoned as possible. Then let meat rest for at least 90 minutes at room temperature, or overnight in the fridge. Brush meat with oil, place on the rack and grill at 180 °C in a closed grill for about 60 minutes.
- Halfway through grilling, you can add cubes of bacon, a few small potatoes and cut vegetables to the pan—everything will be beautifully flavoured with the juices released from the meat. Cook chicken until it is nice and crispy. At the end, the heat can be increased so that it is cooked properly.
Salad Preparation
- Grate cabbage/cut into thin strips, place in bowl, add sugar and salt, and squeeze with your hands. It will soften nicely. Then add horseradish, grated carrot, oil and vinegar to the cabbage. Season with salt and pepper if necessary.
Mayonnaise Preparation
- Mix mayonnaise with chopped parsley, season with pepper and lemon juice.
