Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, 3 minced garlic cloves, the juice of 1 lemon, 1 teaspoon of dried ginger, 1 teaspoon of dried coriander, 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Stir well to create a fragrant marinade.
  2. Rub the marinade generously all over the chicken, ensuring it's well coated. Stuff squeezed lemon halves inside the chicken for added flavor.
  3. Tie the legs of the chicken with kitchen twine and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 4 hours.
  4. Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) before removing the chicken from the refrigerator.
  5. Place the marinated chicken on a roasting rack in a baking dish and roast for 45 minutes.
  6. After 45 minutes, brush 1/2 cup of mango chutney over the chicken and return to the oven for an additional 20-30 minutes.
  7. Use a meat thermometer to check that the chicken reaches 75°C (165°F) internal temperature.
  8. Once cooked, apply a final coat of mango chutney glaze and let the chicken rest for 15-20 minutes before carving.
