1Place chicken breast side down on a large chopping board and use kitchen scissors to cut through the bones either side of the backbone. Flip the chicken and use both hands to push the chicken flat. Pat the chicken dry with kitchen paper.
2Grate the zest of one lemon into a small bowl, season with salt and pepper, add the garlic, parsley, mustard and 1 tablespoon of Nuttelex and bring together into a paste.
3Using your fingers, loosen the skin covering the breasts and thighs and carefully rub the mixture under the skin. Rub the remaining Nuttelex over the entire skin area of the chicken and season generously with salt and pepper.
4Halve the remaining lemons and set aside.
5Heat a pan large enough to hold the chicken or heat a bbq to a low/ medium heat.
6Place the chicken skin side down, cover with a piece of baking paper and place something heavy on top like a pan or even a brick. Also add the lemons flesh side down next to the chicken. Cook for approx. 8 minutes, if the skin is browning to quickly reduce the heat.
7Once the skin is golden in colour carefully flip the chicken and repeat until cooked all the way through.
8Remove and allow to rest for 8-10 minutes before serving with the browned lemons and your side of choice and don’t forget to drizzle any remaining juices from the pan over the finished chicken.
