Does anyone remember this recipe?

[luvnit]

I know I made this at least once and loved it.

Okay so it was pretty much this. Take a cast iron skillet, line the bottom with french bread, top it with either a half chicken and cook on the grill. does this ring a bell with anyone?

[Gourmet_Mom]

Yes, I've got that one saved to MC9. Are you looking for it?

[luvnit]

I'm going to look that one up. Don't believe I've ever made it.

[BarbaraS]

One question, though. Is this a whole or cut-up chicken? Butterflied, even?

It's butterflied, Barbara. At least that's how I made it.
