Day 130: Spice-rubbed Roast Chicken stuffed with Falafel and Greek Salad

Conclusion: the roast chicken stuffed with crumbled falafel was a stupendous success.
I decided that since the bird had already been given a middle Eastern theme, I’d dress it up a little with a rub – a paste made with 2 Tbsp. olive oil, a crushed clove of garlic, 1 tsp. cumin, 1 tsp. paprika, 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp. pepper and 1/4 tsp. allspice. (Mashing it together proved once and for all that my mortar and pestle is useless. Pretty, but the smooth marble does not promote grinding; it rather allows everything to slide around unless you directly bash it with the end of the pestle. I’ve seen those coarse ones at Winners for under $20, and imagine they’d do a much better job of it.)
I’ll spare you the photo of the goopily rubbed raw chicken. It just doesn’t look appetizing at all. But after an hour and a half in the oven:
Huge success. The rubbed-down crispy skin was fantastic paired with the falafel stuffing, which was admittedly mushy, but in the best possible way, all loosened up by the chicken juices. I could hardly contain myself from picking at the crispy bits coming out of the bird and in the bottom of the pan. OK, I didn’t restrain myself at all.
To go with it, a Greek salad. Chopped tomato, cucumber, slivered purple onion, crumbled feta, tossed with a balsamic vinaigrette – Newman’s Own Balsamic Vinaigrette makes a perfect Greek salad dressing, but I don’t buy bottled salad dressings since they’re so easy to make – particularly balsamic vinaigrette.
Greek Salad
2 tomatoes, chopped
1/2 English cucumber, chopped
1/2 small purple onion, slivered or finely chopped
1/2 cup crumbled feta (or as much or as little as you like)Balsamic vinaigrette:
equal parts balsamic vinegar and canola or olive oil
a small squirt of Dijon mustard
a small clove of garlic, pressed (or bash it and leave it in the jar to infuse the dressing, but don’t let it pour out when you top your salad)
drizzle of honey or maple syrup










Why do your roast chickens always look so gigantic? What kind do you buy? I alway buy the ‘fryers’, as they’re usually 2 for $11 at Superstore……I can never find actual roasting chickens.
i must try this falafel stuffing sometime when Martin is out of town (he’s allergic to all legumes including chick peas. Sigh.)
You are inspired Miss Julie!
I just started reading your blog, but I have to say, this is the most delicious thing ever and will now be a regular fixture as it was simple and came out looking exactly like yours! Crunch falafel falling out, mushy on the inside, sooooo good! Thanks for the great idea!
Glad to see you don’t put lettuce in your Greek salad like some North Americans do. When I make mine I just make a vinaigrette of lemon juice and olive oil, plus add some dried oregano or thyme and black Greek olives. And of course salt and pepper.
Hello guys,
I have a problem. I want to learn to cook and need some good recipes to surprise my friends and my family.
I tried out a lot of recipes but none convinced me so I ask you whether you know some books with good cooking recipes and instructions.
I would be thankful for every good hint.
Best regards,
Hobby_cooker
This page has a horrible amount of spam on it. And where’s the recipe for the falafel stuffing?
Sorry, I’ve been trashing the spam comments. The falafel stuffing doesn’t require a recipe – I simply stuffed the chicken with torn leftover falafel. You could use store-bought, or start from scratch. I have a recipe here – https://www.dinnerwithjulie.com/2008/05/06/day-127-falafel/

I seriously love your site.. Pleasant colors & theme.
Did you build this site yourself? Please reply back as
I’m planning to create my very own website and would love to find out where you got this from or just what the theme is called. Many thanks!
I think that everything published was actually very logical.
However, what about this? what if you added
a little information? I mean, I don’t want to tell you how to
run your website, but what if you added a title
to possibly grab people’s attention? I mean Day 130: Spice-rubbed Roast
Chicken stuffed with Falafel and Greek Salad ? Dinner With Julie is kinda
boring. You could glance at Yahoo’s front page and note how they write news titles to get people to
open the links. You might add a related video or a pic or two to grab readers excited about what you’ve got to say.
In my opinion, it could bring your website a little bit more interesting.
