Steps
Read instructions and get ready to cook
Prepare the marinade
Zest and juice the lemons. Mince the garlic cloves. Remove the leaves from the rosemary and thyme stems and finely chop them. In a small bowl, mix the lemon zest, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, olive oil, salt, and black pepper.
Marinate the chicken
Place the whole chicken in a large, resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken, making sure to coat it evenly. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight, to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
Prepare the grill
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (400°F/200°C). Clean and oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Grill the chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the excess marinade. Place the chicken on the grill, breast-side up. Close the grill lid and cook for 60-70 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) in the thickest part of the thigh.
Let the chicken rest
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a moist and tender result.
Carve and serve
Carve the Grilled Whole Chicken into desired pieces and arrange them on a serving platter. Serve hot, accompanied by your favorite side dishes.
