Cajun Rotisserie Chicken With Roasted Mixed Vegetables On A Dcs Gas Grill Recipes

GRILLED CAJUN CHICKEN

Steps:

• Heat gas or charcoal grill. In small bowl, combine all ingredients except oil and chicken breast halves; mix well. Brush oil over all sides of chicken. Sprinkle with seasoning mixture.
• When grill is heated, place chicken on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium coals. Cook 10 to 12 minutes or until chicken is fork-tender and juices run clear, turning once.

ROTISSERIE CHICKEN AND ROASTED VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Rub olive oil on the trussed chicken, season with rosemary leaves, sea salt, and black pepper. Put onto the rotisserie spit being careful to tighten the wing nuts so the chicken doesn't slip during cooking. If a rotisserie isn't available, roasting the chicken in a 350 degree oven and turning every 30 minutes will have a similar result.
• In either case, put the vegetables into a roasting pan, toss with olive oil and season with sea salt and pepper. If using an oven, put the chicken on a roasting rack over the pan. If using a rotisserie, position the chicken on the spit so its juices will drip onto the vegetables.
• Every 30 minutes, toss the vegetables for uniform cooking.
• Cook for 2 hours or until the legs move easily, remove, lay a piece of aluminum foil over the chicken to let it rest 5 minutes. Put the vegetables on a plate and either lay the whole chicken on top or, what I prefer for ease-of-serving, cut apart the chicken and slice the breast pieces.
