Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

Clean the whole chicken and pat dry with paper towels.

In a bowl, combine minced garlic, chopped onion, grated ginger, lime juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, cumin, coriander, paprika, black pepper, and salt to create a marinade.

Rub the marinade all over the chicken, ensuring it is well coated.

Place the chicken in a roasting pan and drizzle with vegetable oil.

Stuff the cavity with thyme, bay leaves, and chili pepper for added flavor.

Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for about 1.5 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Baste the chicken with pan juices every 30 minutes for even cooking.

Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving.

Serve with rice or a fresh salad.
