A perfect rhythm for your down time is yours to enjoy!

Ingredients: (serves 4)

• 3 1/2 lbs. whole, organic chicken
• 2-3 Tbsp. organic avocado oil
• 1 tsp. organic, garlic powder
• 1 tsp. organic, onion powder
• 1 tsp. 21 Seasoning (a Trader Joe’s special)
• 1 tsp. organic, smoked paprika
• Himalayan salt to taste
• Organic, ground pepper to taste

Thoroughly wash and dry the chicken

Cut it in half, length wise

Thoroughly rub your bird with oil

Sprinkle bird with all seasonings, being careful not to accidently rub-off while handling

Place on preheated grill with skin-side up…be sure flame not directly under the chicken but to the side to prevent burning of your bird

Close the grill and keep at 375 to 400 degrees for approximately 90 minutes, while hanging out on the patio with your favorite company and beverage
