½cupOlive oil
2tablespoonsHot pepper sauce *

Pepper to taste

Directions

Using poultry shears, cut the bird open by cutting down the backbone.

Flatten a bit by pounding with your hand so that the chicken is "butterflied."

Mix the remaining ingredients in a large bowl and marinate the bird for 2 hours.

Grill on a medium-hot charcoal barbecue, skin side down, for 25 minutes. Turn and cook until the juices run clear, about another 20 minutes. Keep basting with the remaining marinade.
