Roadkill Chicken
Roadkill chicken is a special way of preparing chicken in which it is laid flat on the grill. This is where the name comes from, as it looks like it has been run over. Rubbed with a lemon pepper rub and served with a chimichurri sauce, it tastes fruity and spicy. Enjoy!
Preparation 55 minutes
