in the cavity. You can make a compound butter by mixing softened butter, crushed garlic and any fresh herbs (I like thyme, mint and rosemary) and separate the skin from the meat and shove the compound butter in. I also put a quartered sweet onion and some celery in the cavity.

I recently made a turkey in this manner, adn it was really good.

I also cook my chicken or turkey with the breast down, and sprinkle some "seasoned salt" on the exposed skin after rubbing it with some of the compound butter.

If you are going to grill just the chicken breast, dust it heavily with a really good quality curry powder, cover with plain (unsweetened) yogurt and some organic meat tenderizer ( I use the one made with papaya), let it sit for 4-5 hours or overnight and then grill. Leftovers I serve in a pita bread with cucumber sauce.

but have found that a fresh pineapple is tastier. And when we want our chicken to have that extra zing, we'll throw in a couple of whole mangos (unpeeled) for good measure and it comes out perfect. Mr. Chow's/Spagos has nothing on us!
************ • LOL. Sorry, but how the heck to you squeeze all that into a chicken? - nm

Every chicken has a hole (cavity). You simply take the fruit, pop it (or stuff it) in the hole (cavity) and bake it all. When it's done, go inside the hole (cavity) and pull out the fruit. Round file it. Put the chicken on a plate, slice and serve. It comes out very juicy and moist.
****************** • Sounds good. I'll have to try it. - elllap
