1

Start by trimming the fat pieces from the chicken.

2

Gently exfoliate the skin with sea salt for crispy skin, then rinse off the salt.

3

Place the chicken on a baking sheet with paper towels to remove moisture.

4

Season the chicken with a mix of black pepper, ground cumin, dried parsley, thyme leaves, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and salt.

5

Decide whether to cook the chicken whole or in pieces; the creator opts for both for meal prep.

6

Insert the rod into the rotisserie oven and hook the chicken in the center.

7

Close the door of the rotisserie oven and set the timer for 60 minutes, adjusting for a 7 lb chicken to roast until it reaches 165°F.

8

For a quicker option, brush olive oil and a sugar mixture over the chicken and roast in an air fryer for 40 minutes, brushing again after 20 minutes.

9

While the chicken roasts, prepare the sides by roasting poblano peppers until charred, then sweat and rest them to make peeling easier.

10

Remove the charred skin, stems, and seeds from the poblano peppers and slice them into strips.

11

Render the chicken fat from earlier to sauté sliced onions and poblano peppers.

12

Prepare a raspberry chipotle sauce by combining pickled jalapeno juice, chipotle sauce, raspberries, coconut sugar, ground cumin, liquid smoke, garlic powder, and a small piece of poblano or molasses in a saucepan over medium heat until raspberries fall apart, then blend and strain the sauce.

13

For a quick sauce, mix Mexican sour cream, mustard, garlic herb seasoning, and chicken broth.

14

Wash and clean the potatoes, then boil them in water until soft.

15

Strain the potatoes, then cook them with truffle butter and chicken drippings until fully coated and heated.
