Chicken or whole fryer weighing 1¼ kilos

Marinade

1/4 cup yogurt1 teaspoon black pepper1 teaspoon ground cardamom1 teaspoon ground clovesJuice of 1 lemon with its zestGrated gingerSalt1 tablespoon vinegar2 tablespoons red pepper molassesRub it with salt and lemon, add 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and prick it mostly with toothpicks to help it cook; marinate it with the seasoning inside and out.For grilling, fill 3/4 of a medium-neck glass bottle or jar with hot water and put a piece of lemon inside.Insert the chicken over the mouth of the jar or bottle, place it in the pan, and put it into a preheated oven.If the pan's water level drops, add more boiling water as needed.The chicken will cook and brown after about two hours or more depending on its size — check doneness with the tip of a knife — you can switch on the oven's top heat after it's cooked so it browns well.For more of Salam's great chicken recipes, here's this link: Oven Chicken Marinade
