Preparation
Before we get started, let's talk about the ingredients and equipment you'll need. For this recipe, you'll need:
1 whole chicken, about 1.5 kg
1 tablespoon of salt
1 tablespoon of sugar
1 teaspoon of black pepper
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
Charcoal grill or oven
Once you've gathered your ingredients, it's time to prepare the chicken. Start by cleaning the chicken and patting it dry with a paper towel. Next, cut the chicken in half lengthwise and flatten it with a meat mallet.
Marinade
Now, it's time to make the marinade. In a bowl, mix together the salt, sugar, black pepper, minced garlic, and vegetable oil. Rub the marinade all over the chicken, making sure to coat it evenly. Cover the chicken with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the fridge for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.
Grilling
Once the chicken is marinated, it's time to start grilling. If you're using a charcoal grill, light the charcoal and wait until it's hot and covered with white ash. Place the chicken on the grill, skin side down. Grill the chicken for about 20-25 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and golden brown. Flip the chicken over and grill for another 20-25 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through. If you're using an oven, preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the chicken on a baking sheet and bake for about 45-50 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and golden brown and the meat is cooked through.
Serving
Once the chicken is done, remove it from the grill or oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. You can serve the ayam panggang with rice, vegetables, and sambal for a complete meal.
