Dateline: October 1, 2020 Buttermilk Chicken

 

I had a whole chicken in the fridge that needed to be cooked.  I had contemplated grilling on grill #1, but opted to spatchcock it and grill it on grill #2.  I was intrigued by Nigella Lawson's recipe, so I used it.  

I only marinated it for a couple of hours, but it was sufficient to hint at the suppleness that reviewers mentioned.  I would certainly do it again when I have some buttermilk that is calling out to be used and enough planning ahead to hold it over night.

The meat was perfectly done, even though the photo shows some pink, that was smoke ring I believe.  I served it with some grilled cauliflower and microwaved, yes, microwaved, sweet and white potatoes.  10 minutes in a brown paper bag.  Perfection!



All in all, a very satisfying dinner, with plenty of leftovers for Bill's breakfast meals.
