Steps:

  • To attain maximum heat, preheat broiler for at least 15 minutes before using.
  • Broil chicken halves, turning once, for about 30 minutes or until skin is golden-brown and juices run clear when bird is pierced with a fork.
  • Remove chicken from broiler, leaving broiler on. Using a very sharp knife, cut each half into about 6 pieces (leg, thigh, wing, 3 small breast pieces).
  • Place chicken on a baking sheet with sides, of a size that can fit into the broiler. Pour Lemon Sauce over the chicken and toss to coat well. If necessary, divide sauce in half and do this in two batches.
  • Return to broiler and broil for 3 minutes. Turn each piece and broil for an additional minute.
  • Remove from broiler and portion each chicken into each of 6 warm serving plates.
  • Pour sauce into a heavy saucepan. Stir in parsley and place over high heat for 1 minute. Pour an equal amount of sauce over each chicken and serve with lots of crusty bread to absorb the sauce.
  • Whisk together juice, oil, vinegar, garlic, oregano, and salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. Whisk or shake vigorously before using.

Two 2 1/2- to 3-pound broiling chickens, halved
1/4 cup chopped Italian parsley
Lemon Sauce (recipe follows)
2 cups fresh lemon juice
1 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic

RAO'S FAMOUS LEMON CHICKEN

The most requested dish at Rao's in New York City is this lemon chicken -- or pollo al limone, as many of the restaurant's Italian American regulars say. Owner Frank Pellegrino roasts two broiler chickens, then flavors the meat with a tangy lemon, olive-oil, and garlic sauce.
