Cooking instructions

Cooking instructions

Preparation

Remove all packaging and ensure the chicken cushion is fully defrosted. Allow to stand at room temperature for approximately 60 minutes before cooking.

Preheat the oven to 190°C / 170°C fan / Gas 5.

Cooking

Place the joint in a roasting tray, brush lightly with oil and season with salt and pepper. Cover loosely with foil and roast for approximately 50 minutes per kg.

For a 1.4kg joint, allow approximately 1 hour 10 minutes.

Remove the foil 20 minutes before the end of cooking to allow the bacon to brown.

Ensure the chicken is thoroughly cooked and piping hot throughout, with clear juices when the thickest part is pierced. As this is a stuffed poultry joint, check that the centre of the stuffing reaches 75°C.

Resting

Once fully cooked, remove from the oven, cover with foil and leave to rest in a warm place for at least 20 minutes before carving.

Cooking times are guidelines only and may vary depending on your oven.
