    Grilled Chicken with Bourbon Maple Glaze


    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    FOR THE GLAZE:
    1/3 cup bourbon
    2 tablespoons maple syrup
    1 tablespoon Dijon country-style mustard

    FOR THE CHICKEN:
    1 roaster chicken, 6 to 7 pounds
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    3 large cloves garlic, minced
    2 teaspoons Kosher salt
    1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper

    Recipe



    TO PREPARE THE GLAZE:
    In a small bowl, combine all glaze ingredients. Set aside.

    TO PREPARE THE CHICKEN:
    Rinse chicken and pat dry. With poultry shears or knife, split chicken lengthways along one side of backbone. With breast side up, pull up on two sides of back and press down firmly on breast until 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 evenly on both sides of chicken. Place chicken, skin side up, in center of cooking grate.

    Grill 1 1/2 to 1 3/4 hours or until meat thermometer inserted into centre of thigh meat (but not touching bone) reaches 180 degrees F/82C (170F/77C for breast) or until juices run clear and skin is well-browned, brushing occasionally with glaze during last 20 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before carving.

    Servings: 6
