It is the holiday season which means a lot of time needs to be spent on cooking to feed people coming over. People create elaborate menus, fuss over cooking, and when it is time to dig in, they are too tired to take a bite of the meal they spend hours making for hours. Being a host is not easy but you can surely find ways to escape the kitchen and spend more time with your near and dear ones.
People with the Usha OTG will tell you how easy it is for them to prepare a feast without spending several hours on their feet. If you like fish and chicken, the OTG will be a perfect addition to your kitchen. Here are some recipes you can bake in it.
Peri-Peri Roast Chicken
Prepare a per-peri sauce and apply it to the chicken. You can also toss in a few chunks of your favourite vegetables in the sauce. Make sure that the peri-peri mixture also coats the insides of the chicken. To prevent vegetables from burning, you can stuff the meat with spiced veggies and tie its legs. Bake the chicken until the crust is crispy and the meat is cooked to perfection.
Indian Masala Roast Fish
Indian masala roast fish is a hearty dish to relish during the holiday season. It is easy to prepare, boasts regional spices, and pairs well with a lavish meal. Coat your favourite variety of fish with garlic, lemon juice, butter, and coriander leaves mixture. Snapper or sea bass are best for this recipe. Slide the piece inside the Usha OTG and bake until cooked. You can also seal them in banana leaves before baking.
Tandoori Roast Chicken
No matter the season, tandoor roast chicken is always a people pleaser and grabs everyone’s attention at the party. It is a perfect addition to the spread because it is healthy and delicious. Meat is marinated in a melange of curd, spices, and tandoori masala, to add smoky flavours and irresistible aroma. Bake the chicken in the OTG for best results and serve it with some refreshing cocktails and mocktails.
Lemon Garlic Butter Roasted Fish
Lemon garlic butter roasted fish is the easiest recipe and probably the most flavoursome. Many times less is more in cooking, especially when baking meat-based delights. Use snapper fillets and marinate in the butter, garlic, lemon, thyme, and coriander syrup. It should coat the fish thoroughly. Bake the ingredients until the fish is flaky and tender.
Orange Glazed Roasted Chicken
This recipe is a refreshing take on roasted chicken and perfect for the holiday season because of the citric flavours it adds to the meal. Prepare orange glaze in a large batch and infuse it with robust notes of rosemary, garlic, and ginger. Brush it all over the chicken and bake it with some orange slices and fresh thyme. You can open the OTG in between and brush some more glaze to prevent the meat from dehydrating.
Sweet Chilli Salmon
Any dish prepared with salmon is a delicacy, and what better time to make sweet chilli salmon than when you are hosting your friends and family? Prepare a sweet and fiery glaze to coat the fillets with it. Slide them into the OTG and roast until the meat is tender and cooked to perfection. You can also sprinkle toasted sesame seeds on the top for a nutty flavour.
