-
Add everything to a blender and blend to a rough paste
-
Make incisions along the legs, thighs and breasts of your chicken for the marinade to penetrate
-
Take half of the marinade and rub all over the chicken, making sure its in the sliced open parts as well
-
Marinade in the fridge overnight. If you don’t have time, just marinade for as long as you can, the flavour will still be amazing
-
Set up your BBQ with 2 zones – a direct heat zone and an indirect zone. You want it set to 220c. If cooking in an oven, set your oven to 220c
-
Cook on the indirect side with the lid down for 30 minutes
-
After 30 minutes, start to brush on the reserved marinade, brushing this on to both sides every 10 minutes
-
Once your chicken hits 70c, move it over to the direct side and char over the coals for a couple of minutes then remove and rest
-
If using an oven, crank the temperature up to 250c for 5 minutes then remove and rest
