I initially saw this recipe from a friend's blog before it linked me to its creator. Yes, grilled chicken is always a good choice when you are lazy or running out of cooking idea. Just like the comment from my friend, the recipe is simple and the chicken turned out moist and crispy on the skin. But, for my next attempt, I would want to rub the chicken with some garlic juice before marinating it with salt.... oh, and maybe some freshly ground black pepper. This is merely my personal preference to enhance the taste.
In order to prepare it as one-dish meal, you may add some parboiled potatoes, broccoli/ brussel sprouts and fresh mushrooms to the baking pan halfway through the grilling. With a bit of salt, pepper and olive oil, your side dish will turn out perfectly cooked when the chicken is done. You may also want to keep the chicken skull for a pot of vegetable soup (we normally use leek, fennel, celery, carrot, tomato, onion and garlic) the next day.
Ingredients:
1 whole chicken
1 tablespoon of salt (the metal type for rice eating instead of the measuring spoon)
Unpeeled cloves of garlic
Method:
1. Clean your chicken and pat dry it.
2. Salt the chicken thoroughly with salt, including cavity.
3. Fill the cavity with lots of unpeeled garlic cloves.
4. Grill in preheated oven of 240 degree celcius for 50-60 minutes.
