½ Cup Fresh Italian Parsley Leaves And Tender Stems
¼ Cup Fresh Rosemary Leaves
Kosher Salt
Freshly Ground Black Pepper
1 Bottle (750 Milliliters) Dry Red Wine
Instructions
Prepare The Braai For Indirect Cooking Over Medium Heat (180° To 230°C).
In The Kitchen
In A Food Processor Combine ½ Cup Oil With The Onion, Garlic, Anchovies, Parsley, Rosemary, 1 Teaspoon Of Salt, And 1 Teaspoon Of Pepper. Process Until The Onion Is Finely Chopped. Pour Into A Large Bowl, Add The Wine, And Whisk Well.
Place Each Chicken, Breast Side Down, On A Cutting Board. Using Poultry Shears, Cut Along Each Side Of The Backbone And Discard It. Open Each Chicken Like A Book. Split Each Chicken In Half By Cutting Right Along One Side Of The Breastbone. Remove And Discard The Wing Tips. Put The Chicken Halves In Two Large, Resealable Plastic Bags. Divide The Marinade Among The Bags. Press The Air Out Of The Bags And Seal Tightly. Turn The Bags To Distribute The Marinade, Place In A Large Bowl, And Refrigerate For 24 Hours, Turning Occasionally (The Meat And Skin Will Be Red In Places From The Wine).
Remove The Chicken Halves From The Bags And Discard The Marinade. Pat The Chicken Dry With Paper Towels, Brush All Over With Oil, And Season With ½ Teaspoon Salt And ¼ Teaspoon Pepper.
At The Braai
Brush The Cooking Grates Clean. Braai The Chicken, Skin Side Up, Over Indirect Medium Heat, With The Lid Closed, For 40 To 50 Minutes. For Crispier Skin, Turn And Move Over Direct Heat For The Last 5 To 10 Minutes (Watch For Flare-Ups). Remove From The Braai And Let Rest For About 5 Minutes Before Cutting Into Serving Pieces. Serve Warm.
