1 chicken (3½ pounds), butterflied (split down the backbone, breast left intact and unsplit)
Salt to taste, if desired

A black iron skillet is essential for the authentic preparation of this dish. Sprinkle the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper. Select a skillet large enough to hold the chicken comfortably when it is opened up, as for broiling. Fold the chicken wings under to hold them secure.
