Grilled chicken in a water bath is an original dish that combines the tenderness of roasted meat with the exquisite aroma of rosemary. The cooking method using a spit and water bath helps retain the juiciness of the chicken, making its meat soft and rich in spicy flavors. This dish draws inspiration from traditional roasting methods but adds a modern touch to ensure even cooking and rich aroma. Red pepper and salt give the chicken a slight spiciness, while fresh rosemary fills it with refined herbal notes. Perfect for festive dinners or cozy family lunches, it delights guests with its appetizing appearance and deep flavor.
