PERUVIAN ROAST CHICKEN w/ CHIPOTLE MAYO
From our 3rd book RIPE RECIPES- A Third Helping - eg the blue book 📖

GF | DF | NF | EF - Serves 4

1 WHOLE CHICKEN (size 16)
1 LEMON
2 LIMES
2 - 3 BAY LEAVES

PERUVIAN MARINADE

1 - 2 tbsp CHIPOTLE CHILLIES in ADOBO SAUCE (1 or 2 chillies + sauce depending on how hot 🌶 you like it!), finely chopped
1½ tbsp RED WINE VINEGAR
1 tbsp soft BROWN SUGAR
4 tbsp OLIVE OIL
4 cloves GARLIC, peeled, crushed and finely chopped
1 tbsp GROUND CUMIN
1 tbsp SMOKED PAPRIKA
2 tsp FRESH OREGANO, roughly chopped (or 1 tsp of DRIED OREGANO)
2 tsp SALT
½ tsp freshly GROUND BLACK PEPPER
ZEST and JUICE of 1 LEMON


CHIPOTLE MAYO

1 - 2 tbsp CHIPOTLE CHILLIES in ADOBO SAUCE (a few chillies + sauce), finely chopped
ZEST and JUICE of 1 LIME
2 tsp HONEY or MAPLE SYRUP
½ cup MAYONNAISE (if using store brought we prefer Best Foods Brand)
2 tbsp FRESH CORIANDER or FRESH PARSLEY, finely chopped


To prepare the Chicken: Spatchcock the chicken by placing the chicken on a chopping board breast side down. Cut along the length of the backbone. Turn the chicken breast side up and splay open.

To prepare the Peruvian marinade: in a small bowl, combine the all the ingredients.

To prepare the chipotle lime mayo: mix all the ingredients together in a small bowl.

Preheat oven to 180°C.

Place the chicken in a deep-sided roasting dish. Rub the juice of ½ of the lemon over the chicken. Rub the marinade all over the chicken.

Slice the remaining lemon and the limes into quarters. Place them under and around the chicken. Pop a quarter of a lime under each wing. Add 1 cup of water and the bay leaves to the baking dish.

Roast for approximately 1 hour or until the chicken is cooked through. After 40 minutes baste the chicken every now and then with the juices from the bottom of the roasting dish.

To Serve: place the roast chicken on a serving platter with the chipotle mayo on the side. Serve with a yummy slaw like our Sticky Mango and Avocado Slaw.

Calling all hospo superstars!
We have a favour to ask - Gather our new eatery is looking for an Assistant Front of House Manager – at Smales Farm

Gather is vibrant, community-focused eatery born from the crew behind Ripe Deli — and we’re on the lookout for someone special to join our team. Think great coffee, genuine warmth, a relaxed vibe with real standards, and a buzzing atmosphere that people genuinely love being part of.

So, what does the role actually look like? You’ll be there to support our FOH Manager — helping lead the team, keeping service flowing, and making sure every guest leaves happy. You’re someone who’s naturally good with people, stays cool when it gets busy, and knows how to read a room. Bookings, table flow, the daily juggle — you’ve got it handled. You’ve got solid FOH experience under your belt and you’re not afraid to roll up your sleeves and get stuck in.

One thing to know — this role runs Tuesday to Sunday, around 30 hours a week, so that availability is a must.

If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you. Send your CV + cover letter to [email protected]
