All Recipes http://allrecipes.com/Recipe-Tools/Print/Recipe.aspx?recipeID=228363&origin=detail&servings=6&metric=false interested me with a caraway, fennel and herb rubbed roasted chicken that they said came from the Bavarian region of Germany. Okay. I didn’t have any caraway seed but used internet recommended dill instead and I forgot to add the flour. But this was the best roasted chicken I have had in years! Years, I tell you! Crusty with flavorful herbs and spices on the outside, juicy and moist inside. The mixture of herbs and spices is a keeper and I will be trying it on other meats and seafood. Thank you All Recipes people!
When I brushed on the herb/spice paste and took a look at the chicken’s new look and smelled the aroma of the mixture, I was sold before it went to the oven. Everybody should make this chicken!
I stir fried some chard with a little spinach to accompany the chicken but when I make this again, I will serve with potato and fresh green salad. Still, chard goes with everything 🙂
Bavarian Roasted Chicken
1 roasting chicken, halved
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp dill seeds
1/2 tsp sage leaves
1/2 tsp fennel seeds
1/2 tsp coriander seeds
1/2 tsp dried rosemary leaves
2 tbsp dark paprika
2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
5 tbsp olive oil
Grind all the seasonings together in a blender, add to the oil and brush on every part of the chicken halves. Let the chicken rest for about 30 minutes, then roast skin side up in a 425 F oven for 15 minutes. Baste with the oil from the bottom of the pan, lower the temperature to 375 F and continue to roast for 45 minutes.
My wife LOVES chard – I will definitely have to give this a try… Looks delicious!
Thank you Jason. Add a couple of shallots to the chard.

Thank you.
The rub on that chicken is perfect. Love the deep red color.
Gorgeous looking chicken. Great that you did not have the right ingredients and forgot the flour. That’s what made the difference!
Best,
Conor
I think so, Conor.

I really like that spice blend that you put on the chicken… Lovely photos as usual!

For those in Michigan, no need to make the drive all the way over to the Bavarian Inn (Frankenmuth, MI). Here’s a great Bavarian chicken recipe with a great mixture of herbs and spices. This might be more of a weekend dish as total cooking time is around an hour.
