How long to cook Rotisserie chicken in convection oven?

Cooking times may vary depending on your oven and the size of the chicken. As a general guide, here's an approximate timeline:

1. Preheat your convection oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. Prepare the chicken:

- Remove any giblets from inside the chicken.

- Rinse the chicken thoroughly with cold water and pat dry.

- Season the chicken inside and out with salt, pepper, and any desired herbs or spices.

- Truss the chicken to keep it in shape while cooking.

3. Place the chicken:

- On the rotisserie spit and attach it to the motor in the oven.

4. Cooking Time:

- For a 3 to 4 lb (1.4 to 1.8 kg) chicken: Cook for approximately 50-60 minutes.

- For a 5 to 6 lb (2.3 to 2.7 kg) chicken: Cook for approximately 65-75 minutes.

- For larger chickens: Cooking time can increase. Check internal temperature to confirm doneness.

5. Internal Temperature:

- The chicken is cooked when the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) in the thickest part of the thigh and 170°F (77°C) in the breast.

6. Rest:

- Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving and serving. This helps to redistribute the juices and ensure the meat is tender.

7. Safety First:

- Always use a meat thermometer to accurately check the internal temperature of the chicken to ensure it's fully cooked and safe to eat.
