Steps:
- First of all we need to prepare the chicken. Here I will show you how to cut the whole chicken and flatten it ready for the marinade. if you know how to do this please skip this and move to the marinade instructions below.
- You need a sharp knife or meat cutting scissors and a chopping board. See the photos below:
- Step 1 : Stand the chicken up on so the wings are sitting on the board. Cut straight down the middle.
- Step 2 : Open out the chicken and see where my finger is pointing in the photo, you will see a white cartilage, cut straight through that all the way along the chicken lengthways.
- Step 3 : Cut all the way right through the chicken.
- Step 4. Once the chicken has been halved place on the board skin side up, and using the flat side of your knife push down until it is flattened a little. If you don't have a suitable knife place the chicken in a zip lock bag and use the base of a heavy saucepan and push down flattening the chicken. You may have to exert a little pressure to push, or find someone with some strong muscles!
- Step 5. Once flattened, using your sharp knife, run deep slashes into your chicken, pay particular attention to the thicker parts of the meat as this will take longer to cook if there are no slits in it. The slits help with the cooking and also the marinade to penetrate the meat.
- If you are using a chicken larger than the weight stated above, place the chicken in an oven proof pan, otherwise, a container large enough to spread the chicken
- The marinade: Add all the ingredients to the chicken, and with the lemon, cut in half first, squeeze the juice all over the chicken the slice up the used lemon and add it to the chicken.
- Use your hands to rub everything together, and then place skin side down in the container.
- Cover and leave to marinade in the fridge for 30 minutes minimum, 2 hours is the best amount of time.
- Once the chicken has marinated, place on the grill / BBQ and turn frequently until the juices run clear from the thickest part of the chicken meat (the breast and thick part of the legs).
- For larger chickens, place in a preheated oven, at 190 C / 375 F Gas 5, covered with aluminium foil for 25 minutes and then place on the grill / BBQ and cook as normal. or continue cooking in the oven until cooked if you are not grilling.
- Serve with my Chinese Style Sweet n Sour Salad and baby Garlic Potatoes!

LEMON BARBECUED CHICKEN
My husband loves chicken, so when we bought our first charcoal grill, we needed a recipe for barbecued chicken. We ended up combining two recipes to come up with this one. We've used it the past 3 or 4 years now and haven't come across any recipe that's better.

LEMON BARBECUE CHICKEN
I found this great recipe many years ago in a recipe book so old the pages had yellowed. If you like to barbecue chicken, you'll really like this one. The secret is crushing the garlic rather than mincing. Somehow the flavor of the lemon, garlic and outdoor cooking will just make your mouth water! We all love it at my house.
