Time 1h5m

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

One 3- to 4-pound whole chicken, innards removed
Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for high heat. Wrap 2 bricks with foil.
  • Remove the backbone of the chicken with kitchen shears. Place the chicken skin-side up and flatten the breastbone by pressing down hard with your hands or a cast-iron pan. Brush the chicken all over with oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Place the chicken on the grill skin-side down. Place the prepared bricks on top to keep the chicken flat. Cook, covered, for 30 minutes. Flip the chicken and cook, covered, until an instant-read thermometer registers 165 degrees in the thickest part of the thigh, 15 to 30 minutes more.

This recipe was a lot of work and the chicken wasn't worth it. I won't be making this again.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but the chicken didn't turn out well. It was tough and chewy.

I followed the recipe exactly, but the chicken came out dry. I think I might have overcooked it.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding more spices next time.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out great. I used a charcoal grill and the chicken had a nice smoky flavor. I served it with grilled vegetables and it was a delicious and healthy meal.

This grilled butterflied chicken was a hit at my last BBQ! The meat was juicy and flavorful, and the skin was crispy and delicious. I marinated the chicken in a simple mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs, and then grilled it over med
