Cooking Instructions
- Remove your chicken from the fridge & place in a roasting pan at room temperature for as long as comfortable. It saves cooking time and oven energy.
- Preheat oven to 180°C / 160°C Fan / Gas 4.
- Remove trussing band and season your bird liberally with salt inside & out. Insert Pop-Up Timer into the thickest part of the breast.
- Place in oven at 180°C for approximately 35 minutes per kg (see timing table).
- As soon as the thickest part of the chicken breast hits 68°C or the timer pops, take the bird out of the oven to rest.
- Leave the chicken to rest for up to 1 hour uncovered. Minimum 30 minutes. It will continue to cook with the residual heat but not overcook. Leave uncovered for crispy skin!
- Chicken Tip: There is no need to add butter or oil to a Copas Chicken.

This year for various reasons we decided to have a change from Turkey. So we thought we would try a Chicken. We were not disappointed, a very enjoyable change a quality product.

Free Range Chicken
My christmas chicken was just superb in every way. Beautifully prepared, excellent flavour. Strong bone structure which shows it is a bird that has been brought to maturity with great care and attention and, as such, could support its body unlike birds that have bones like rubber and have been intensively farmed. Well done to the Copas team in producing excellent food with great care and attention.

The best Christmas chicken we've ever had.
This hands down was the best Christmas chicken we have ever had. It was an absolutely beastie in size, tasted amazing. We were given instructions, was packaged really well. Was absolutely perfect! Really made our Christmas.
