Whole chicken on a bottle in the oven

Description

The recipe won't take much time. Choose a whole, uncracked bottle made of thick glass. It should be at room temperature. In this case, the bottle will serve as a spit—fill it with water and seasonings (or beer), then place it on a baking tray half-filled with water, so that the fat dripping from the chicken doesn't burn and smoke. Serve hot.
