Whole chicken is not just for roasting in the oven– it’s perfect for grilling. A juicy, spice-rubbed grilled chicken makes a great weeknight meal for the family or a crowd. This recipe is easy and quick to prepare. Use a good quality rub and you’ll get perfectly charred skin with flavor-packed, tender meat inside. This grilled chicken is delicious served with summer salads and comforting sides like Stovetop Mac and Cheese or fluffy mashed potatoes.
This is an excellent example of a technique called spatchcocking or butterflied chicken. It is ideal for grilling because it allows the chicken to lay flat and easily char and absorb smoke’s flavor and moisture. It also cooks evenly throughout, which is important for a well-done whole chicken. You can find whole chickens already butterflied in the poultry section of the supermarket or ask your butcher to do it for you.
You can cook this in a gas or charcoal grill. The trick is to set up your grill for indirect heat, which means turning off one burner or arranging the coals so that you have an area of indirect heat. Place your grill grate in this zone and then put the chicken on over it. Grill the chicken over 375-400F degrees for about 20 minutes per pound or until the meat thermometer reads 160F.
A whole grilled chicken is an impressive main course for any dinner party. Serve it with salads, such as Watermelon Feta Salad or Grilled Peach Salad, or comforting sides, such as White Cheddar Mac and Cheese or Red Mashed Potatoes.
