How to use the Ninja DOUBLE OVEN | Whole Roast Chicken

Can the new Ninja DCT451 12-in-1 Smart Double Oven with FlexDoor roast a whole chicken? Yes it absolutely can. You can roast a whole chicken, load the same baking tray with broccoli in the bottom CONVECTION OVEN AND cook macaroni and cheese in the top RAPID COOK oven.
I used SMART FINISH so everything was ready at the same time. A complete roast chicken dinner all in 1 countertop oven.
The two separate ovens let's you cook at different temperatures with different functions and finish at the same time.

The SMART THERMOMETER monitors the temperature of the chicken during cooking so the chicken was perfectly cooked.
I seasoned the chicken with 2 tablespoons of seasoned salt and let it sit, covered, in the refrigerator overnight.
The Mac and cheese bake recipe is from the Ninja Foodi Double Oven cookbook that is included with the unit. You will need an oven and broiler safe, 8 by 8 inch pan with 2 inch high sides. Ninja Kitchen suggests you purchase their pan that is available on their website.

Hi Rose! Thank you so much for your kind words of support. They really mean a lot to me. Thanks for watching!

[@LorenzoNW]

Thank you, just what I was looking for. I'm deciding between the convenience of the double oven version vs. the capacity of the single oven. And your review helped me choose the DCT451. It appears the size of the bottom chamber is more than adequate for a single person or a small family.

I am glad you found my video helpful! Thanks so much for watching

That looks really good. I’ve never put cream cheese in my Mac & cheese, but if I were to try this recipe, I would stir the macaroni about midway through the cooking to mix in the cream cheese. Then I would put cheese and breadcrumbs on top after that. Seasoned breadcrumbs are best also. Thanks for sharing this with us. 🙏🏽😊

[@davidmyers-wakeman5515]

Thank you for showing us a perfect, complete meal that anyone could do in this oven! Love it! 💙✨

Great presentation I bought this oven last week and just started playing with it.

[@tuitistastebud]

I would use my tried true Mac cheese make the roux etc... then just pop in top for 20 minutes

[@dothill1258]

Thank you so much for doing this. I have been waiting for your thoughts on the whole chicken cooking. This looks fantastic! And, I can tell a 5# chicken will fit just fine. 🎉🎊

[@craigosterberg5045]

[@Sagittarius90]

[@sweetsavant]

Hi William! This chicken was approximately 4.25 pounds. Thanks for watching!

[@daynastithem3576]

I need those oven mitts where did you get them please?

[@kathyli1477]

Has anyone tried baking an 8" or 9" cake in the double oven? Is the bottom oven high enough for a normal cake?

[@user-yn2im6tp7u]

Do you noticed loud fan noise when it’s cooling down? Thank you

[@kinglord5429]

Could you butter fly a whole chicken to cook on broil pan while cooking frys and vegtables or potato on basket and cooking biscuits in top oven. Whole meal in one unite

[@sweetsavant]

I haven't tried it but I think it would work. Thanks for watching.

[@alexandria1448]

Can you make a pie or cake in this?

[@ravenna9969]

Omg this video is convincing me but I’m always stopping myself because of the warning on the site of cancer and ish(I think it’s a Cali thing that they have to list )

[@ravenna9969]

I need a new something because I have that old model of a Nuwave oven where you have to lift up that big tower

[@kaberle7]

Packaged cheeses have cellulose and other anti-caking agents in it. It should not be used in these recipes. Cellulose is a wood by-product. Why would you want to eat that?
