Lemon Garlic Chicken Under a Brick!






1 Whole Roaster Chicken butterflied (cut down the backbone and pressed down)
2 Bricks wrapped in foil
2 Lemons juiced and zested
6 Cloves of smashed garlic
1 cup of fresh Italian parsley
1 sprig of fresh rosemary
1/2 cup of olive oil
1/2 of white wine
1 tsp hot pepper flakes (optional)
Generous amount of sea salt, pepper

Mix together the lemon juice, zest, parsley, rosemary, olive oil, wine, salt, pepper and pepper flake. Put your chicken into a deep bowl and add the marinade. Let sit for at least an hour (overnight is always better) and turn occasionally. Once the chicken is fully marinated, sprinkle with more salt and pepper. Nest, fire up your grill. Place the chicken on the grill with the two foil covered bricks on top of the chicken. Cook about 25 minutes on each side or until all juices run clear. Serve on a beautiful platter and sprinkle with additional parsley and freshly squeezed lemon. Enjoy!
