The Devil's Chicken Went Down To Georgia

Recipe Ingredients

2		Chickens - (2 1/2 to 3 lbs ea) - cleaned, trimmed
8 tablespoons	120ml	Extra-virgin olive oil - divided
4 tablespoons	60ml	Freshly-ground black pepper - plus more to taste
		Salt - to taste
2 tablespoons	30ml	Dijon mustard
2		Italian parsley - leaves only
1		Red onion - thinly sliced
12		Cherry tomatoes - cut in half
1 tablespoon	15ml	Sherry vinegar
		Hot Chili Oil - (see recipe)

Recipe Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Season the chicken inside and out with salt and pepper. Truss the chickens and brush each one with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Place in 1 or 2 roasting pans and roast until browned but only half-cooked, about 40 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the 4 tablespoons black pepper, a pinch of salt and the mustard and stir well to combine. Drizzle in 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and mix well.

Once the chickens are half-cooked, remove from the oven and brush each with the black pepper and mustard mixture. Return to the oven and continue roasting until the juices run clear from a pricked spot, about another 30 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before carving.

While the chicken rests, in a medium-sized bowl, combine the parsley, red onion, tomatoes, remaining 3 tablespoons oil, sherry vinegar and salt and pepper, to taste, and toss well to combine.

Allow 1 breast and 1 leg per portion. Drizzle each portion with the pan juices and Hot Chili Oil, top with the parsley salad and serve immediately.

This recipe yields 4 servings.
