How to bake a whole chicken stuffed with Nigerian jollof rice
A whole chicken can be baked with or without stuffing. The stuffing makes them look fuller and more inviting and makes it a complete meal. To bake a stuffed whole chicken, you can stuff with almost cooked rice, stir-fried vegetables, or other foods you enjoy eating with chicken.
I used almost cooked very peppery Nigerian jollof rice for this stuffing and it’s so good. Preparation took just 5 minutes, baking took 1 hour 20 minutes because I like my chicken well cooked, you can bake for 1 hour 15 minutes and it will still be cooked inside.
My oven doesn’t have any readings so I preheated for about 15 minutes before putting the chicken in. In a modern oven bake in a 190 degrees preheated oven. It will be served with the remaining well-cooked jollof rice and some coleslaw.
Ingredients for baking whole stuffed chicken:
- 1 Whole chicken
- Salt
- Knorr chicken
- Maybe I should add ketchup because my ketchup loving girls rubbed some before putting in the oven.
