Yield 7 birds

Number Of Ingredients 20

Ingredients

1 spatchcocked or butterflied chicken
2 tablespoons black peppercorns, lightly crushed in mortar and pestle
Generous 1/3 cup olive oil (not extra-virgin)
2 cloves garlic, peeled and bruised
Maldon or other sea salt
Handful fresh parsley leaves, chopped
2 spatchcocked or butterflied poussins or Cornish game hens
2 limes, juiced
2 tablespoons coriander seeds
Generous 1/3 cup peanut or vegetable oil
Good grinding black pepper
1 bunch scallions, finely sliced
Generous 1/3 cup vegetable oil
Dash toasted sesame oil
3/4 -inch chunk fresh ginger, unpeeled and roughly chopped
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
Maldon or other sea salt
Handful fresh parsley leaves, chopped
1 bunch fresh cilantro, leaves chopped

Steps:

Set each bird in their respective marinade in a dish into which they fit snugly, cover with plastic wrap and leave in the refrigerator, preferably overnight or for 24 hours, though even a couple of hours would have an effect.
When the grill is good and hot, lift the birds out of their marinade and cook until the flesh has lost all raw pinkness but is still tender within and the skin is crisp and burnished and blistered. It's hard to be precise about times, since grills differ even more than ovens do, but on my grill - a gas-fired Outdoor Chef, which I love to distraction and, since it has a lid, I use even in the winter rain - the chicken takes about 35 minutes, the Cornish hens 15 and the quail about 7.
Along with sea salt, sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the chicken and cilantro over the hens and quail, or use whatever herb seems right for the marinades you've concocted.

Spatchcock (butterfly) the chicken. Place the chicken on a cutting board with its backbone facing you. Using a pair of sturdy kitchen shears, cut out the backbone by cutting along both sides of the spine. Remove the backbone. Push down on the breasts to flatten the chicken. Flip the bird over and remove the wing tips. (See the step by step tutorial in the post showing how to spatchock chicken.) You can also ask your butcher to do it.
Salt the chicken. (If you have time, do this the night before). Place the chicken, breast side up, on a large cutting board. Push down on the breastbone. Generously season with kosher salt on both sides. Place the chicken, breast side up, on a shallow roasting dish. Refrigerate uncovered (you can leave it in the fridge to airchill for a couple of hours or overnight).
Bring the chicken to room temperature. One hour before you plan to roast it, pull the chicken out of the fridge and set at room temperature.

To make the brine, combine 1 gallon water with 1 cup salt, sugar, honey, juice of the lemons, squeezed-out lemon halves, onion, bay leaves, peppercorns, and rosemary or thyme sprigs.
Lay the spatchcocked bird in a nonreactive baking dish or roasting pan. Pour the brine over the bird.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 12 hours (the smallest birds, such as quail, could be brined for as little as 15-20 minutes; larger birds, such as turkeys, benefit from 6-8 hours of brining or more).
