Recipe Black Pepper Chicken

[Yorky]

This looks amazing. I've never roasted peppercorn before. Any chance that you can go into more detail how its done?

I would put whatever amount of cracked peppercorn that I want roasted into a cast iron pan. Roast it in the oven at say something like 200 until its roasted, but not burnt.

I might try this dish with legs and thighs!!!!

I dry roast the cracked pepper in a cast iron pan but not in the oven, just over a flame (like dry frying spices). I use this pan which is used solely for dry frying.

Dry roasting of cumin seeds and coriander seeds prior to grinding produces a different and fuller flavour (and a wonderful aroma).

@detroitdad
Have you ever dry roasted nuts on your cook top? Same principle. Toss, toss, toss.

 

[detroitdad]

no I haven't. Low flame, toss around a lot, dry pan?

I've roasted/toasted almonds in my halogen oven.
