Phil first cut his whole chicken into a half.
He explained to viewers: “With a sharp knife you need to go through the cavity of the chicken.
“Then go though the other side and cut out the spine.”
After he cut through the breast and halved the chicken seamlessly.
“I take a sharp knife and take off the knuckle on both sides,” he went on.

Phil liquidised all these ingredients into a thick paste.
He added: “Bear in mind this is a marinade, a seasoning, rather than a sauce that covers the chicken.”
The chef went on: “Then add half the marinade onto the chicken and spread it out. You don’t need huge amounts.”
He recommends leaning it overnight, but you need at least a couple of hours.
When it comes to cooking, Phil instructs: “Grill (the chicken) on a BBQ for four or five minutes each side on a medium heat, and then leave it with the top down to bake.
