My Orange,Peppery Tangy Roast Chicken

 Thought of doing a nice chicken roast over the week.
Make the usual gashes over the chicken breasts and legs so that the spices would be evenly coated through as well as rubbed in.
Marinated the whole chicken with half a cup of orange juice, a quarter cup lemon juice in which spices such as a tbsp. of pepper powder,a tbsp. or two of chilly powder,ginger garlic paste,salt and Eastern Chicken Masala were all whisked in. They were thoroughly rubbed into the cavity of the chicken and all over the chicken and the chicken was kept like so for more than an hour.
 Preheat your oven. Slice potatoes,use cherry tomatoes or other veggies that you like along with the roast. Keep the whole marinated chicken in a roasting/baking dish of choice and roast it in the oven at 175 degrees(increase the temp to 200 after half an hour) for nearly three quarters of an hour, keep basting with olive oil or more orange juice in between as you check the dish to keep it moist.
 Once the chicken is baked through, take it out and let it rest in the roasting tray over your kitchen counter. When you serve, you can pour its own juices or the gravy formed over the chicken piece that you have sliced and served.
I have arranged a few slices of Kiwi as well as an accompaniment.
