BARBEQUED CHICKEN WITH CHERMOULA RUB.

This chicken dish is so summer and could be just the thing for Christmas... The chicken can be cooked on a barbeque or in your oven, either way it is up to you. Ingredients.....1 x 1.6 kg large chicken,cut in half and flattened (I flatten the chicken with a rolling pin),1 lemon cut into quarters. Chermoula Rub.......1/2 bunch of coriander, chopped, 1/2 bunch of flat leafed parsley, leaves picked and chopped, 3 tbs of minced garlic, 1 tsp of sweet paprika, 1 tbs of minced ginger, 1 tsp of ground cumin, 1 tsp of ground coriander, 150ml of rice bran oil, juice of 1 lemon, 1 tsp of salt. First let's prepare the chermoula....Mix all the ingredients in a medium bowl until well combined. massage the chermoula all over the chicken and leave to marinate for an hour. If using your barbeque, preheat it to its hottest setting, or preheat your oven to 220 deg C. and line an oven proof dish with a light spray of cooking spray. Cook the chicken skin side down for 15 minutes , then turn it over and cook for another 15 minutes or until cooked through (test with a skewer inserted into the drumstick) if the skewer comes out warm, remove the chicken onto a serving plate and serve with lemon wedges.
