4 cloves garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 cups fresh lime juice, plus wedges for serving
1/2 cups reduced-sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons honey
1 full chicken (artisan, kiyenyeji, farm grown)
3 bunches scallions, trimmed
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoons Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
1 cups Fresh cilantro leaves with tender stems
8 pieces Limes

Steps:

Whisk garlic, lime juice, soy sauce and honey in a large bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat. Let sit at least 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 450° or place on a Charcoal grill with white coals. Transfer chicken and marinade to a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet, placing chicken skin side down. if you are grilling, place the foil on the grill plate to preserve the juices from the chicken and marinade
Roast until fat begins to render, 15-20 minutes. Turn chicken skin side up and continue to roast, basting occasionally with pan drippings and remaining marinade, until chicken is cooked through and deeply browned, 15-20 minutes longer.
After turning chicken, toss scallions with oil on another rimmed baking sheet; season with salt and pepper.
Roast, shaking pan halfway through, until tender, 10-15 minutes (thinner stalks will cook more quickly).
Transfer chicken to a platter. Pour any pan juices into a glass measuring cup. Let sit a few minutes, then spoon off fat from surface.
Spoon pan juices over chicken and serve with scallions, cilantro, and lime wedges.
DO AHEAD: Chicken can be marinated 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.
