Easy Roasted Chicken

INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

Although this REAL BBQ it is an easy way to cook a whole chicken on a
gas grill!  And you thought gas grills were for those fat, white legged
guys you  see in the neighborhood every Sunday burning steak. This
recipe is so  simple that I always wonder why those "Famous" TV cooks
have not  demonstrated it.  I call it Easy Roasted Chicken.  Split a
whole 3 pound chicken by cutting up the middle of the breast  bone.
Press the chicken flat, and rub both sides, plus under the skin  around
the breast, with the following concoction:  6 tablespoons onion powder
* 3 tablespoons sugar * 3 tablespoons  garlic powder * 4 teaspoons
dried thyme flakes * 4 teaspoons ground  cinnamon * 3 tablespoons
ground allspice * 2 teaspoons ground nutmeg  * 3 tablespoons
fresh-ground pepper * 1 dried habanero chile, chopped  fine or 2
tablespoons hot pepper sauce (optional)  Mix the spices thoroughly in a
bowl. Store remainder in a covered jar  in a cool pantry.  Light both
sides of your gas grill and leave them on high for ten  minutes or
until the lava rocks are hot. Shut off one side of the  grill and turn
the other side to its lowest setting. Place the  chicken, skin side up,
on the off side of the grill. Close the cover  and let it cook for 45
minutes. Raise the cover and turn the chicken  90 degrees, close the
cover and finish cooking for another 45  minutes. Test the thigh for
doneness with an instant reading meat  thermometer. About 180 degrees
is okay or pull the wing, it should  come off easily. Remove the
chicken from the grill and let it rest  for at least ten minutes before
slicing.  Recipe by: Dave Frary  Posted to recipelu-digest by molony
