Time 1h5m

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

One 3- to 4-pound whole chicken, innards removed
Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for high heat. Wrap 2 bricks with foil.
  • Remove the backbone of the chicken with kitchen shears. Place the chicken skin-side up and flatten the breastbone by pressing down hard with your hands or a cast-iron pan. Brush the chicken all over with oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Place the chicken on the grill skin-side down. Place the prepared bricks on top to keep the chicken flat. Cook, covered, for 30 minutes. Flip the chicken and cook, covered, until an instant-read thermometer registers 165 degrees in the thickest part of the thigh, 15 to 30 minutes more.
