Deer Creek Mountain Chicken….ไก่ย่างเขาสวนกวาง

Deer Creek Mountain is the name of a city in Khonkaen. It is famous for serving the best grilled chicken in North East Thailand. It is a delicious recipe.

Ingredients:
1 (3 pound) whole chicken, butterfly cut
3 cloves garlic
3 cilantro roots (I substitute with 1 tablespoon roasted coriander seed)
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
4 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon or 1 cube chicken bullion
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon white sesame seed

Directions:
1. Using a heavy mortar and pestle, mash the garlic, roasted coriander seed and black pepper to a paste. Add lime juice, chicken bullion, sugar, salt, and sesame seed mix well. Pour marinade into the chicken, cover and refrigerate for over night.


2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place chicken bone side up on a wire rack and place a baking pan covered with aluminum foil below the rack. Bake for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes flip the bone side down and bake for 30 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and juice runs clear.


Serve with sticky rice.
