Wrap the chicken on itself and tie in such a way that it has the classic shape of a roast.
Place the Cervia coarse salt with the egg white in a mixer and whisk until a salty meringue is obtained, add the Cervia coarse salt and mix.
On a baking tray with baking paper, create a base the size of the chicken with the meringue, lay the chicken on its back side and with the help of a pastry bag cover the chicken with the rest of the meringue, creating a decorative effect.Cuocere in forno misto preriscaldato a 170° per 60 minuti.
