Steps:

  • Heat oven to 325 f. Heat grill to medium heat. Prepare garlic for roasting by peeling off the dry outer skin to expose individual cloves. Place in an oven-proof dish and roast for 1 hour until the cloves are soft. Squeese cloves from garlic head and mix with olive oil, butter and paprika, set aside. In a large bowl, mix together all marinade ingredients. Rinse chicken and with your fingers, carefully separate the skin from the chicken making a pocket. Place chicken (skin side up)in a roasting pan and spoon the marinade under the skin. Spoon the remaining marinade over the top of the ckicken. Increase oven temperature to 375 f. Bake the chicken for 30 minutes, remove from oven and finish off on the grill (6-7 minutes per side) until chicken has cooked through and the skin is crispy. While chicken is grilling, frequently baste chicken with garlic basting paste. Before serving, cut each chicken half in two pieces. To make the sesame noodles, mix together sesame oil, garlic, ginger, brown sugar, peanut butter, vinegar, soy sauce, and water. Blend until incorporated and pour over noodles. Mix well and chill for a minimum of one hour, tossing occasionally. Before serving, sprinkle with green onions, peanuts and sesame seeds.
