Peruvian Roasted Chicken Gina's Weight Watcher Recipes Servings: varies Points+ with Skin: drumstick 2 pts, wing 3 pts, thigh 4 pts, 4 oz breast 5 pts Ingredients:
    1  whole chicken
    4 oz  beer, (I used Corona light)
    1/4 cup  white vinegar
    1  lime, juice of
    2 tsp  cumin
    2 tsp  garlic powder
    1 tsp  dried oregano
      salt
      paprika
Directions: Wash chicken and remove all fat. Place in a large bowl and season generously with beer, vinegar, lime juice, salt, garlic powder, cumin and oregano. Place in a large bag and marinate overnight. Remove chicken from bag, cut chicken in half and place both halves on a large oven safe baking dish, skin side up. Discard marinade. Sprinkle chicken with paprika and a little more garlic powder and salt and bake at 425° for about 50 minutes, basting with the pan juices half way through. To test for doneness, insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken; the thermometer should read about 160°F. The chicken needs to reach an internal temperature of 165°F, but after the chicken is taken out of the oven it should rise to 165°. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before carving. **TO BBQ- If you want to make this chicken on the grill, I would recommend cutting the chicken into individual pieces before you marinate. Position the grill rack 4-6 inches above the fire. Cook covered turning often about 20-25 minutes, until juices run clear when the thigh is pierced with a knife.
