Step 2: Show Time

In Conventional Oven:

Heat up the grill or oven at 400 F and cook 20 mins on one side and 20 mins on the other side accordingly constantly applying oil and some left over marinade sauce every 10 mins. And then with the skin side up broil it on low heat for 3 minutes to get some nice charring.

In BBQ Grill:

Heat up the grill to 400F and cook 20 mins on one side and 20 mins on the other till you see nice charring on the skin constantly rubbing some oil and the left over sauce.
