ROASTED SPATCHCOCK CHICKEN
When you have a famous chef for a dad, you learn how to enjoy good food early on - and if you're Madeline and Anna Zakarian, you learn how to cook it, too. The daughters of Geoffrey Zakarian have been in training for years, helping with family dinners and assisting Dad with cooking demos at press events, on Good Morning America and on his Food Network show The Kitchen. Now the 13- and 11-year-old girls are releasing their first cookbook, The Family That Cooks Together, a collection of 85 recipes that they love making at home. Don't expect chicken fingers: These young chefs have grown up learning to appreciate dishes like linguine with fresh clams and strawberry soufflé. Anna promises that they're not trying to intimidate anyone; the idea is to show kids that fancy-sounding food can be really easy to make. For this spatchcock chicken, they use a dad-approved shortcut and get the chicken split open at the butcher. Then they just roast it and serve it with rice for a quick dinner. "We want to show people of all ages that you can cook delicious things," Madeline says.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Rinse the chicken, pat dry and rub all over with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Generously season on both sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. When the oil is hot, place the chicken, skin side down, in the pan. Cook until the skin starts to crisp on the edges and the color is golden brown. Flip the chicken over with tongs, taking care not to splatter oil toward yourself, and add the garlic, rosemary and thyme around the chicken in the pan. Squeeze a lemon half over the top and place both lemon halves in the pan, cut sides down.
- Transfer the pan to the oven and roast the chicken (skin side up) for 30 to 35 minutes, until a meat thermometer registers 155˚ F when inserted in the thickest part of a breast. Let rest for about 10 minutes, then carve and serve with pan juices.
SPICE-RUBBED SPATCHCOCKED CHICKEN
A spatchcocked chicken, also called a butterflied chicken, cooks more quickly and evenly than a whole bird, giving you juicy white meat as well as dark meat in less than an hour. Here the chicken is marinated in a brown sugar and chile spice rub before being roasted until its skin is crisp and deeply flavored. If you aren't up for spatchcocking your own bird, you can ask your butcher to do it for you.

Steps:
- Spatchcock the chicken by using poultry shears or kitchen scissors (or a sharp knife) to cut along one side of the backbone until the chicken opens. If you like you can cut along the other side of the backbone and remove it, or leave it attached to roast with the rest of the bird. Open up the bird and place it so it lies flat, breast side up. Press hard onto the center of the breast until you feel a pop, and the breast lies more or less flat.
- In a small bowl, mix together sugar, salt, chile powder, paprika, mustard powder, oregano, pepper, allspice and bay leaves. Smear the mixture all over the chicken. Lay chicken, skin side up, on a rimmed baking sheet (or plate) and refrigerate uncovered for at least 2 hours and up to 24 hours.
- Heat oven to 425 degrees. If the chicken isn't on a rimmed baking sheet, transfer it to one. Roast chicken until the juices run clear when the thickest part of the thigh is pricked with a fork (an instant-read thermometer plunged into the thickest part of the breast will read 150), 40 to 50 minutes.
- Remove from oven, cover bird with foil and let rest for 10 minutes before carving. Serve with lime or lemon wedges on the side.
