1 tablespoon Fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons Ground cayenne pepper

NOTE: the two cloves of garlic should be crushed with 1 tablespoon of

opening the chicken leaving the breast attached. Squeeze lemon juice over
the chicken. Mix together the garlic, peppers, and paprika, and add to
the melted butter. Pour over chicken. If possible, let the chicken sit
overnight, uncovered, in the refrigerator. Prepare the grill. Place the
chicken, breast side up, on the grill. Cover the grill and cook chicken
for 50 minutes or until done. Don’t turn. If the skin is not crispy,
place the chicken under the broiler to crisp the skin and brown, watching
carefully so that it doesn’t burn.
