Ingredients to Serve-2
3 Medium Lemons
2 Teaspoons Miami Spice
1/4 Cup Dry White Wine
2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
1 2 1/2pnd Chicken, cut in Half
6 Large Mint leaves, torn in half

To Prepare the Marinate: Zest the lemons and then cut, and squeeze the juice from all into a small bowl. Whisk in the spice, wine and oil. Place the chicken in a low pan. Pour the marinate over the chickens. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
To Grill on a BBQ: Prepare hot grill for indirect cooking. Pile the hot coals on 2 sides of the bbq. Place a drip tray between the piles and set the grill on top about 6 inches from the heat. Position the chicken skin side up over the drip tray. Close the top of the bbq and cook. After 5 minutes open the lid and baste the chickens with marinate, re-arrange chickens, but do not turn over. Continue to cook for a 45 minutes, basting each 10-15 minutes, until the skin is crisp and golden brown.
To Serve: Remove the chicken from the grill. Place on a large platter. Garnish with torn mint leaves, reserved lemon zests and green olives.
