Ingredients
- 1/3 c. bourbon
- 2 Tbsp. maple syrup
- 1 Tbsp. Dijon country-style mustard
- 1 x roaster chicken - (6 to 7 lbs)
- 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
- 3 lrg garlic cloves chopped
- 2 tsp Kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp freshly-cracked black pepper
Directions
- To make the Glaze: In a small bowl, combine all glaze ingredients. Set aside.
- Rinse chicken and pat dry. With poultry shears or possibly knife, split chicken lengthwise along one side of backbone. With breast side up, pull up on two sides of back and press down firmly on breast till bones begin to crack and chicken is reasonably flat. Thread two sturdy metal skewers crosswise through flattened chicken; skewers should run perpendicular to thigh bones, through the breasts, and through the middle of the large wing joints.
- Combine oil, garlic, salt, and pepper; brush proportionately on both sides of chicken. Place chicken, skin-side up, in center of cooking grate. Grill 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hrs or possibly till meat thermometer inserted into center of thigh meat (but not touching bone) reaches 180 degrees (170 degrees for breast) or possibly till juices run clear and skin is well-browned, brushing occasionally with glaze during last 20 min. Let stand 10 min before carving.
- This recipe yields 6 servings.
- Wine Recommendation: A Semillon from Washington State or possibly Australia will float the bourbon glaze and highlight the juiciness of the chicken.
- Beer Recommendation: To highlight the glaze and caress the chicken, what else but a maple lager
- Comments: An easy recipe which will impress dinner guests because the chicken grills up so juicy and delicious.
