   For the rub mix the plain flour, smoked paprika, freshly ground pepper and salt all together in a bowl.

   In a thick bottom pan, add some olive oil and brown each side of the chicken.

4. 4

   Transfer the chicken portions into a grill pan.

5. 5

   While the pan is still on the heat, add a little beer to scrape off the browned bits of chicken skin, rub & fatty juices.

6. 6

   Add the rest of the rub to the pan, and slowly stir in the beer.

7. 7

   Allow the sauce to thicken and add some BBQ sauce too, to sweeten the flavour a tad.

8. 8

   Take the sauce off the heat and pour over the chicken in the grill pan.

9. 9

   Break some fresh asparagus sticks in halves and arrange them around the chicken.

10. 10

    Pre-heat the oven to 180 deg C and place the grill tray on the middle shelf.

11. 11

    Allow to bake for 25 minutes and grill for a few minutes to brown off the chicken, and release the fats from the skin. This adds a lot of flavour to the asparagus and makes them heavenly!!
