Ingredients:-

• 1 medium chicken
• 2 red chillis seeded and chopped
• 2 cloves garlic chopped
• 50g or 2 oz butter (softened)
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Method:-

Take the garlic and chilis and mix with the softened butter. Gently put your hand in the neck end of the chicken and prise the skin away from the flesh taking care not to puncture the skin – patience is a virtue at this point!

Take the chili garlic butter mix and smear it on the flesh under the skin, sprinkle the skin lightly with cumin, salt and pepper and then you’re ready for the barbecue smoker.

Place the chicken on the preheated plank and cook for 90 minutes at 180°C or 350°F.
