Ingredients

• 1 Whole chicken
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 Lime
• 1 Ripe mango
• 1 cup Pineapple chunks (fresh or canned)
• 1 large Tomato
• 1 small Red onion
• 1 Jalapeño
• 0.25 cup Cilantro (fresh)
• 1 teaspoon Honey
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your rotisserie oven or grill to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Pat the whole chicken dry using paper towels, ensuring the skin is moisture-free.

Step 3

Rub the chicken all over with olive oil and season generously with salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and ground cumin. Place half a lime inside the chicken cavity for enhanced flavor.

Step 4

Secure the chicken to the rotisserie spit according to the equipment’s instructions. Ensure it is balanced for even cooking.

Step 5

Cook the chicken in the rotisserie for approximately 90 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) in the thickest part of the meat. Baste occasionally with its own juices if desired.

Step 6

While the chicken cooks, prepare the Fire Ice Salsa: peel and dice the mango, chop the pineapple into small chunks, dice the tomato, finely chop the red onion, and mince the jalapeño (remove seeds for less heat).

Step 7

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the mango, pineapple, tomato, red onion, jalapeño, and chopped cilantro.

Step 8

Add honey, lime juice, and salt to the bowl and mix well. Place the salsa in the refrigerator to chill until ready to serve.

Step 9

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the rotisserie and let it rest for 10 minutes before carving.

Step 10

Serve the chicken slices alongside the chilled Fire Ice Salsa for a delicious balance of savory, sweet, and spicy flavors.
