Butterflying a whole chicken, cutting along the backbone and pressing it flat, means every part cooks more evenly, and this version comes already marinated in a classic tandoori blend of yogurt, red chilli, and roasted spices so it's ready for the grill or oven with no extra prep. The yogurt in the marinade tenderises the meat while the spice coating builds into a deeply flavoured, slightly charred crust as it cooks, giving you that familiar tandoori look and taste without needing an actual tandoor. Because the chicken lies flat, it fits neatly on a grill, under an oven broiler, or even on a large griddle pan, and the even thickness means the breast and leg meat finish cooking at closer to the same time than they would on a whole roasted bird. Baste it once or twice with any extra marinade or a little butter for a glossier finish, and let it rest for a few minutes after cooking so the juices settle back through the meat. Serve it whole for a table centrepiece or carve it into pieces alongside mint chutney, salad, and warm naan.

Keep it refrigerated and cook within a day or two of delivery for the best result.
