!±8± How to Prepare a Partially De-Boned Chicken for the Barbecue or for Oven Roasting

A partially de-boned chicken is quite easy to prepare if you use a very sharp knife. The breast- and back-bones are removed so that the chicken becomes much flatter and cooking time is reduced. Marinated and barbecued, it taste very special and remains moist and succulent. Chicken prepared in this way is also good roasted in the oven.

You will need:

1 chicken - medium 1 - 2 kg chopped herbs of your choice ½ cup cooking oil ¼ cup vinegar or lemon juice or a mixture of the two salt and pepper Small pinches of nutmeg, allspice and cloves (all powdered) ¼ cup tomato sauce (bottled) ¼ cup chutney or barbecue sauce 2 Tablespoons sugar, white or brown. This blends in with all the other flavors as gives the cooked meat a good color.

Method:

Preparing the chicken:

Put the chicken on a carving board Grasp the legs and wings one by one and twist them backwards to break the joints Cut the tips off the wing Cut through the skin from front to back down to the back bone Turn the knife at an angle and cut the skin and flesh off the bone Grasp the skin with your spare hand and pull it gently away from the bone cut in between the ribs and the breast meat, pushing the breast meat aside Carefully cut down to the breast bone Take care not to cut through the skin Turn the chicken around and repeat on the other side Carefully cut between the joints at the top of the drumsticks and the wings Remove the carcass consisting of the breastbone with rib cavity and the back section

Marinade

Push the wings and drumsticks to the sides Smear the marinade liberally over the inside of the chicken Fold the wings and drumsticks inwards until the cut sections meet up. Put the rest of the marinade into a dish that will hold the chicken snugly Place the chicken cut side down into the marinade Smear the exposed chicken with marinade until well covered Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, mot will do no harm

Storing:

The marinated chicken can be stored in a Ziploc bag and frozen

Or later use for about a month
