Easy recipe: Salted brine chicken

This is probably the simplest and most delicious chicken recipe for Ramadan.

What you will need:

1 capon, backbone removed and laid flat

1 tablespoon of salt

1 litre of water

1/2 cup of vinegar

What to do:

In a bowl, add the washed chicken and massage it with salt and vinegar. Then add the water and leave the chicken to marinate in the fridge for about 3 hours. Remove the chicken from the water, pat it dry, then roast it in an oven at 200°C for 1 hour, or in an air fryer on the chicken setting for 25 minutes on each side, for a total of 50 minutes. Serve over your favourite aromatic rice. Enjoy!
