Инструкции
- For the stuffing, soak the raisins in warm water to cover for 30 min.
- Drain and set aside. Heat the wine in a small saucepan over a medium heat till hot. Remove from the heat, add in the saffron, and let steep for 15 min.
- Put the couscous in a shallow baking dish (a 9 inch square will do fine).
- Heat the water and 4 Tbsp. of butter to boiling, then pour over the couscous and stir well. Cover with foil and allow to stand for 15 min.
- Fluff the couscous with a fork.
- Heat the remaining 2 Tbsp. of butter in a medium saute/fry pan over a medium heat. Add in the minced onion and cook till soft and without colour - for 8 to 10 min. Add in the cinnamon and cook for 2 min. Add in the saffron infused wine and cook for 1 minute. Stir the onion mix, raisins, almonds and honey (if using) into the couscous. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Allow to cold.
- Spread the spice rub under the skin of the chicken - being careful not to tear the skin. Spread on the outside of the skin also.
- Preheat the oven to 450F, spoon the cooled stuffing into the cavities of the chicken also. Place the chicken on a rack in a shallow roasting tin or possibly sheet pan. Roast, basting occasionally with the spices, till the juices run clear when the thigh is pierced with a skewer (for about 45 min).
- Serve immediately.
