This grilled spatchcocked chicken is simple to do and only requires a sharp pair of kitchen shears and 5 minutes of your time. Grilling over indirect heat keeps the chicken moist.
Ingredients
- 1 cup extra virgin olive oil
- ¼ cup lemon juice
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon dried tarragon
- 1 (4.5 pound) whole chicken, spatchcocked
- salt and ground black pepper to taste
Directions
Step 1
Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, garlic, rosemary, and tarragon together in a measuring cup.
Step 2
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
Step 3
Place chicken on a rimmed baking sheet. Pour 1/2 of the oil mixture over the chicken and reserve the remaining 1/2. Using your hands, massage the oil mixture into the chicken skin. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 4
Grill chicken skin-side up over indirect heat for 50 minutes. Move chicken over direct heat and grill 5 minutes. Carefully flip chicken over skin-side down and grill until skin is brown and crispy, about 5 more minutes. Transfer chicken to a serving platter and let rest for 10 minutes.
Step 5
Drizzle reserved oil mixture over the chicken. Carve and serve.
Editor’s Note:
To spatchcock a chicken, use sharp kitchen shears and cut along both sides of the backbone and remove. Using your hands, press down on both sides of the chicken to flatten.
