Ingredients

  • 3/4

    cup

    KRAFT Classic CATALINA Dressing

  • 1/4

    cup

    maple-flavored or pancake syrup

  • 1

    tbsp

    chopped fresh rosemary

  • 1

    whole chicken (3 lb.)

  • 3

    lb

    fresh asparagus spears, trimmed


Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Mix first 3 ingredients until well blended; reserve 1/4 cup for later use.

  2. Step 2

    Place chicken, breast-side down, on cutting board. Use kitchen shears to remove backbone. Turn chicken over; press on breastbone to flatten chicken. Place, skin-side up, in shallow dish; tuck in wings. Brush with remaining dressing mixture. Refrigerate 2 hours to marinate, turning chicken occasionally.

  3. Step 3

    Heat grill to medium heat. Cover grate with heavy-duty foil; spray with cooking spray. Remove chicken from marinade; discard marinade. Place chicken, breast-side down, on foil. Grill 45 min. or until chicken is done (165ºF), turning after 10 min. Transfer to cutting board. Tent with foil; let stand 10 min. Meanwhile, brush asparagus with reserved dressing mixture. Grill 6 to 8 min. or until crisp-tender, turning occasionally. Slice chicken; serve with asparagus.
