Ingredients

• 6 cloves garlic
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 juice of 1 lemon
• 1 broiling chicken (3 1/2 to 4 pounds)

Directions

1. Grind garlic to paste in mortar or small food processor. Work in salt, olive oil and lemon to create mayonnaise-like consistency.

2. Cut chicken into 6 to 8 pieces, slashing each piece (except wings) to the bone 2 to 3 times against grain of meat. Rub pieces with sauce, cover and refrigerate 1 to 3 hours.

3. Grill chicken pieces over medium heat until juices run clear, 10 to 12 minutes per side.
