Roasting a Frozen Chicken in the Nuwave Oven

Roasting a frozen chicken in the Nuwave oven is a convenient and time-saving way to prepare a delicious meal for your family. With the right techniques, you can achieve a juicy and flavorful roast chicken without the hassle of thawing. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you roast a frozen chicken in the Nuwave oven:

Ingredients:

  • 1 whole frozen chicken
  • Seasonings of your choice (salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, etc.)
  • Olive oil or melted butter
  • Vegetables for roasting (carrots, potatoes, onions, etc.)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Nuwave oven: Start by preheating your Nuwave oven to 375°F. This will ensure that the oven is hot enough to cook the chicken thoroughly.
  2. Prepare the chicken: Remove the packaging from the frozen chicken and discard any giblets that may be inside. Rinse the chicken under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels.
  3. Season the chicken: Rub the chicken with olive oil or melted butter, then generously season it with your choice of seasonings. Be sure to season the chicken inside and out for maximum flavor.
  4. Prepare the vegetables: If you're including vegetables in the roast, chop them into large chunks and season them with salt, pepper, and olive oil.
  5. Arrange the chicken and vegetables in the Nuwave oven: Place the seasoned chicken on the 4-inch rack in the Nuwave oven. Surround the chicken with the seasoned vegetables, making sure everything is arranged in a single layer for even cooking.
  6. Cook the chicken: Put the lid on the Nuwave oven and cook the chicken for approximately 2 to 2.5 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Check the chicken periodically and baste it with the pan juices to keep it moist.
  7. Let the chicken rest: Once the chicken is cooked through, carefully remove it from the Nuwave oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in a juicier chicken.
  8. Serve and enjoy: Carve the chicken and serve it with the roasted vegetables for a delicious and satisfying meal.
