There’s nothing better than Sunday Roast Chicken with its juicy interior and crispy exterior. The method we turn to for the best results is the Zuni Cafe method. This simple technique is also known as dry brining, and in this version, we grab our 18 Spice Chicken Blend and Roasted Garlic Olive Oil. Fab results and happy plates.

What version will you make? Roast chicken has endless possibilities. Grab a Spice Blend and an Olive or Avocado Oil. Imagination is all that’s needed!
