College Confidential - View Single Post - what should a college student do with a whole chicken?

Any tips for:

Something easy for 2 or more people to prepare together....

Something with the highest flavor / dollar ratio. I don't think I have wine (although perhaps, my floormates might

), but I have tumeric-based curry powder, basil paste, mint flakes, yogurt, sour cream, milk, jam and jelly, soy sauce, bouillon, jasmine rice (as well as the usual celery, carrots, potatoes, garlic, ginger and onions). I may also be able to borrow other spices...and get other materials.

I don't mind spending up to 4 hours.

I'm a newb at marinading. I think my friends will be too. A marinade based on instinct and stuff, perhaps?

Juicy chicken: +. Soft and jelly-like chicken skin: +. Preferably, I want to minimise the risk of having the meat dry up due to some error.
