Ingredients

2 red capsicums (bell peppers), sliced into chunks
1 red onion, cut into wedges
60ml (¼ cup) olive oil
sea salt, to season
6 cloves garlic
1½ tbsp smoked paprika
60ml (¼ cup) red wine vinegar
2 tsp dried oregano
2-3 birds eye chilies, chopped
1 tsp ground coriander
2 tsp caster sugar
zest and juice of 1 lemon
2 tsp sea salt
freshly ground black pepper
1.65 -1.8kg (3.65 - 3.95lbs) whole chicken
3 fresh bay leaves
1kg potatoes, cut into wedges
salad, to serve

Method
Step 1: Prep the marinade
Preheat a charcoal grill with rotisserie to 200°C (390°F). Allow room for a drip tray underneath the rotisserie.
Drizzle capsicums and onions with a little of the oil, then place over the grill. Cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally to char and soften.
Transfer to a tray and allow to cool for 5 minutes, then place in a blender with the garlic, paprika, vinegar, oregano, chillies, coriander, sugar, lemon zest, remaining oil, salt and pepper. Blend until smooth.
Step 2: Marinate the chicken
Place bay leaves and some of the marinade in the cavity of chicken, then tie legs together with some kitchen string to enclose, then tie underneath chicken to hold wings in place.
Place in a large bowl and coat all over with half of the marinade, then refrigerate for 1 hour to overnight.
Step 3: Cook the chicken
Thread chicken onto the rotisserie prong and secure in place. Place potatoes in a tray (that can sit in the base of the BBQ), oil and season with salt, and place on top of the BBQ coals under the chicken.
Cook chicken turning on rotisserie for 55-60 minutes with the lid on, until skin is well coloured and chicken juices run clear when tested at the thighs.
Set aside to rest for 10 minutes.
Step 4: Finish and serve
Meanwhile, place the remaining marinade in a small saucepan with the lemon juice. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally, and cook for 15 minutes.
Add any resting juices from the chicken and cook for a further 5 minutes.
Carve the chicken and serve with the peri peri sauce, the roasted potatoes and a green salad.
