Make sure to wash your chicken and brine it. 1 tablespoon of salt for every cup of water you used and mix until the salt is completely dissolved, leave it, in the brine for approximately 3 to 4 hours.

Create a spice rub by combining some or all of these spices with a little bit of olive oil and rubbing the mixture onto the chicken before grilling.

Alternatively, you can sprinkle the spices directly onto the chicken while it's on the grill. Just be careful not to overdo it with the spices, as this can overpower the chicken flavour.

Prepare your grill by making sure the coals are red hot and place your chicken on the grill. Let it sizzle as you you baste the chicken with your spice marinade.

Remember do not grill it over an extremely hot fire, this may dry out the chicken. Keep the temperatures at 75 degrees Celsius.

Once the chicken is golden brown and caramelised take it out and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile plate your sides of veggies, sauces, and a starch of your choices such as roasted potatoes or Ugali.

By this time the chicken meat should have achieved an absolutely juicy, caramelised, and spicy taste.
