Broiled Chicken Recipe 2 ingredients

To prepare this Broiled Chicken Recipe 2, first cut the fowl down the back and through the breast. One of these pieces (half a chicken) will be enough for a family of two. Disjoint the wings and legs. Prepare the broiler as for beefsteak; put in the chicken and broil on the flesh side, three or four minutes (the skin on the other side will hold back the juice), then turn and broil on the skin side about one minute; repeat until the chicken is well marked with the wires of the broiler. Put the chicken into a baking pan, on a rack, and pour in half a cup of broth or hot water; baste the chicken thoroughly with melted butter, and let cook in the oven about twenty minutes, basting every five minutes. Serve with mashed potato, asparagus, hot or cold, and tomato salad.
