“Rotisserie style chicken is spit roasted chicken using a rotisserie. Even roasting, a moister bird and having the fat drip off during the rotation are the reasons why rotisserie chicken is so popular. The problem is that not every one has a rotisserie at home but you want the rotisserie flavor. The use of a roasting pan should help with crisping the skin and allowing the fat to drain off.”
