Instructions
- Mix the marinade in a medium bowl and set it aside.
- Spatchcock/butterfly the chicken by placing it on a cutting board with the backbone facing you. Use a pair of kitchen shears to cut out the backbone by cutting along both sides of the spine and removing it.
- After that, push down on the breasts to flatten the chicken. Flip it over and remove the wing tips.
- Next, pat dry the chicken and season it with salt all over.
- Add the butter underneath the skin.
- Add the chicken to a large baking dish. Add the marinade and rub it all over the chicken, making sure to get it under the skin as well. Cover and marinate in the fridge for 2 to 4 hours or overnight.
- Preheat an outdoor grill over medium-high heat (400 degrees F) and lightly oil the grates.
- Place the chicken over indirect heat, cover, and cook for 45 minutes to 1 hour or until its internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.
- Rotate and flip the chicken occasionally or as needed for uniform cooking.
- Once done, please remove it from the heat and set it aside on a cutting board to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving it.
- Serve it with grilled vegetables.
