Steps to Prep

Step 1: First, preheat the oven to 480 degrees F (249 degrees C).

Step 2: Combine the yogurt, the pepper paste, salt and seasoning salt in a bowl .Then, add the old bay seasoning, smoked paprika, and creole seasoning to the bowl. Keep mixing them until mixed well.

Step 3: Next, rub this chicken marinade all over your chicken especially under the skin and cavity with your hands.

Step 4: After that, get any empty drink can like empty pepsi can or coca cola can. Drill two holes at the top of your can with the key-style can opener. Then, put the empty can in a deep metal baking dish.

Step 5: Wrap the can in some tinfoil, slide the chicken over the can. Keep its body cavity on the bottom, and lower it over the can. Then, pull the chicken legs forward to make a tripod shape. Next, remember to fold the wing tips behind the birdโ€™s back so they do not burn.

Step 6: Brush melted butter all around the chicken, making sure to cover every bit of skin and pouring some into the cavity as well. The butter keeps the chicken moist and gives it the signature golden brown caramelization we want.
