Instructions
For the Roast Chicken:
- Preheat Oven 350 degrees F.
- Place the carrots and celery stalks at the bottom of a cast iron frying pan.
- Place the whole chicken on top of the “rack” of the celery and carrots.
- Combine the Wildtree Memphis Dry Rub into the Wildtree Wicked Good Slow Cooker Sauce and rub all over the chicken and gently lift the skin and place a little of this mixture under the skin.
- About 15 minutes before the chicken is done add about 1 ½ cups of water to the bottom of the pan.
- Place the chicken in the preheated oven and cook 20 – 25 min. The chicken is cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of at least 165 degrees F and the juices run clear.
For the Tempura Vegetables:
- In a bowl mix the cornstarch, flour, baking powder, salt, Wildtree Memphis Dry Rub and the panko and toss together.
- Add in the seltzer and the egg and mix until smooth.
- Heat a large cast iron frying pan with about ½ inch of cooking oil.
- Dredge the veggies in the batter and carefully place into the heated oil.
- When the batter is set and slightly golden on one side carefully turn over and finish cooking on the other side.
- Place on a pan that is prepared with a paper towel.
- Serve with the WildTree Wicked Good Slow Cooker Sauce for dipping.
For the Wedged Salad:
