Method
Pat the chicken dry, cut it along the breastbone, open it up and flatten it. Lightly pound the joints.
Rub the chicken all over with salt and pepper.
Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a large heavy-bottomed frying pan. Place the chicken skin side down, cover with a plate and put a weight on top.
Fry over medium heat for about 15 minutes, until browned.
Turn the chicken over, press it down with the weight again and fry for another 15 minutes, until the juices run clear.
Pound the garlic with salt, mix with the chopped cilantro and the remaining oil. Spoon the sauce over the hot chicken.
