Steps

10-20 mins

1

Get large shallow bowl and put in all the spices then mix together for a consistent colour
2

Take a couple of knobs of butter and melt. Then using a brush spread on to the chicken ensuring both sides are covered
3

Once the chicken is buttered, liberally spread on to the chicken
4

Ensure you do both sides of the breast and also the ends. If you have some thick breast then feel free to slice down
5

Now cook using your chosen method. You can use a hot skillet, you can pan fry with a small about of butter or oil but the best way is on the BBQ for flavour and because this dish can cause a lot of smoke.
6

It took about 10 mins on my kamado at 350-400F but as always with chicken you have to ensure all juices are clear. Try not to over cook though. You should end up with a black but not burnt coating.

Enjoy with a fresh salad or chips or whatever you want. Great with a bit of mayo if you need to cool the spices.
