--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   2                    Chickens or chicken breasts
   2       sm           Heads garlic
                        Water
     1/4   c            Chopped Italian parsley
                        Salt and pepper
   2       tb           Unsalted butter
   1       lg           Lemon -- juiced

  If using whole chickens, halve chickens and bone completely except for
  wing joint.  If only using breasts, bone completely.  Place the heads of
  garlic in water to cover in a small saucepan and bring to a boil.  Drain.
  Peel the garlic and cut each clove into paper-thin slices.  Toss in a bowl
  with the parsley, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  Loosen the chicken skin and stuff about 2 teaspoons garlic mixture between
  the skin and the meat.  Reserve remaining garlic mixture.  Set chicken
  aside.
  Prepare hot coals in a grill.  When the coals are ready, grill the chicken
  5 to 7 minutes on each side, or until the flesh is no longer pink.  Do not
  overcook the chicken or it will become dry.
  Heat the butter in a skillet, add the reserved garlic mixture, and saute a
  few seconds.  Add the lemon juice and adjust seasonings.  Heat through.
  Place the chicken on a large heated platter and spoon the garlic sauce
  over it.
