This Weber Grills recipe brings big flavor to the table. 🔥 Chef Matt Abdoo shows how to make Peruvian-inspired spatchcock chicken with crispy skin, juicy meat, and a bright, garlicky aji verde sauce. Cooking the chicken flat helps it cook faster and more evenly. Fire up your Weber and give this one a try! 🙌

Peruvian Grilled Chicken & Aji Verde
Serves: 2–4
Marinate: 1 hour to overnight
Cook: 30–40 minutes

Chicken
1 whole chicken (4–5 lb.)
¼ cup olive oil
¼ cup lime juice
1 Tbsp. granulated garlic
1 Tbsp. kosher salt
1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
1 tsp. each sweet paprika, Hatch chile powder, black pepper, cumin, oregano and sugar

Aji Verde
3 jalapeños, seeded and chopped
1½ cups cilantro
1 cup mayonnaise
3 garlic cloves
Juice and zest of 1 lime
2 Tbsp. vegetable oil
1 Tbsp. white vinegar
1 Tbsp. honey
½ tsp. kosher salt

Directions
1. Remove the chicken’s backbone with kitchen shears. Turn breast-side up and press firmly on the breastbone until flat.
2. Whisk the chicken marinade ingredients together. Pour over the chicken in a resealable bag and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
3. Preheat the grill for two-zone cooking, with one side at medium-high heat and the other at low heat.
4. Grill the chicken skin-side down over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Rotate 90 degrees and grill for 2 more minutes.
5. Flip the chicken skin-side up and move it to low heat. Cook for 30–40 minutes, or until the thigh reaches 165°F. Rest for 5 minutes before cutting.
6. For the aji verde, blend all ingredients until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
7. Serve the chicken with aji verde and fresh lime wedges.

Enjoy! 🔥
