Wine Can Chicken

• 1 can (12 Oz. Size) Soda Or Beer, EMPTY
• 1 cup Dry White Wine
• 1 sprig Rosemary
• 2 cloves Garlic, Crushed And Diced, Divided
• 4 Tablespoons Olive Oil
• 1 teaspoon Chili Powder
• 1 teaspoon Chopped Fresh Basil
• 1 teaspoon Chopped Fresh Oregano
• 1 whole Chicken (4-5 Pounds)

1. Preheat your grill.
2. You will have to cook your chicken with the indirect heat method, which means that you will want your chicken to sit on an OFF burner while the other burners are still on medium/high.
3. But first you must heat your grill with ALL burners on to get the grill extremely hot.
4. Next fill your empty can of soda or beer with 1 cup of wine, rosemary (you may have to break it in half to fit) and 1 garlic clove.
5. Set aside.
6. In a small bowl, mix your olive oil, remaining chopped garlic, chili powder, basil and oregano.
7. Using your lovely hands, massage your mixture all over your chicken, inside the cavity and if possible under the skin.
8. Next sit your chicken on the can, making sure it will sit properly and not fall over.
9. Time to go to the grill.
10. Turn off the middle burners (I have 6 burners so I turned off the 2 middle ones) and sit your chicken on the grill.
11. Close the lid and cook for about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours.
12. Juices should run clear.
13. Let your chicken stand for 10-15 minutes prior to carving so you dont lose all the fantastic juices.
