Part 2/5:
Creating the Marinade
Start by combining the olive oil and melted butter in a mixing bowl. Next, add the finely chopped fresh herbs and minced garlic. Mix these ingredients thoroughly to create a delicious marinade that will coat your chicken beautifully.
Preparing the Chicken
The chicken is the star of the show, so the preparation is crucial. To facilitate faster cooking, you'll want to remove the backbone of the chicken. This allows the chicken to lay flat, ensuring even cooking throughout.
After removing the backbone, pat the chicken dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture. This helps the marinade adhere better to the skin.
