Cooking Instructions

    • Remove your chicken from the fridge & place in a roasting pan at room temperature for as long as comfortable. It saves cooking time and oven energy.
    • Preheat oven to 180°C / 160°C Fan / Gas 4.
    • Remove trussing band and season your bird liberally with salt inside & out. Insert Pop-Up Timer into the thickest part of the breast.
    • Place in oven at 180°C for approximately 35 minutes per kg (see timing table).
    • As soon as the thickest part of the chicken breast hits 68°C or the timer pops, take the bird out of the oven to rest.
    • Leave the chicken to rest for up to 1 hour uncovered. Minimum 30 minutes. It will continue to cook with the residual heat but not overcook. Leave uncovered for crispy skin!
    • Chicken Tip: There is no need to add butter or oil to a Copas Chicken.
