Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 Chickens or chicken breasts
2 sm Heads garlic
Water
1/4 c Chopped Italian parsley
Salt and pepper
2 tb Unsalted butter
1 lg Lemon -- juiced

If using whole chickens, halve chickens and bone completely except for
wing joint. If only using breasts, bone completely. Place the heads of
garlic in water to cover in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Drain.
Peel the garlic and cut each clove into paper-thin slices. Toss in a bowl
with the parsley, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Loosen the chicken skin and stuff about 2 teaspoons garlic mixture between
the skin and the meat. Reserve remaining garlic mixture. Set chicken
aside.
Prepare hot coals in a grill. When the coals are ready, grill the chicken
5 to 7 minutes on each side, or until the flesh is no longer pink. Do not
overcook the chicken or it will become dry.
Heat the butter in a skillet, add the reserved garlic mixture, and saute a
few seconds. Add the lemon juice and adjust seasonings. Heat through.
Place the chicken on a large heated platter and spoon the garlic sauce
over it.
