If you’re looking for a new and interesting way to barbecue a spatchcock chicken, the good news is, you’ve found it! This recipe comes from Leyli Homayoonfar chef-owner of award-winning Bab Haus.
Leyli says: “A modern twist on a Persian classic – the joojeh kabab – this is my go-to dish when it comes to summer entertaining. Spatchcocking the chicken makes for easy prep and halves the cooking time. Serve alongside a deliciously moreish salad of labneh, charred courgette, feta, almond and dates.”
