- After thoroughly cleaning the chicken, grill it whole over a good heat source (preferably electric or charcoal).
- When the fat starts to melt and drip, sprinkle the chicken with salt on both sides and continue grilling (since the chicken is tender, it will cook quickly).

- Remove it, cut it into pieces, and brush it with a bit more sauce.
- Serve with a tomato salad and fries.
