ROASTED SPATCHCOCK CHICKEN



Roasted Spatchcock Chicken image

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.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (3 1/2-pound) whole spatchcock chicken
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 heads garlic, cut in half horizontally
4 sprigs fresh rosemary
4 sprigs fresh thyme
1 lemon, cut in half horizontally

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.

SPATCHCOCK CHICKEN

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Whole Chicken Recipes

Time 50m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 (3 1/2) pound whole chickens, wingtips removed
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon dried tarragon
1 teaspoon paprika
¼ teaspoon black pepper
4 teaspoons olive oil
2 lemons, thinly sliced and seeded

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil.
  • Place chicken, breast side down, on a work surface. Starting at the tail end, cut along both sides of backbone with kitchen shears. Remove backbone. Grabbing hold of both sides of the chicken, open it like a book. Turn breast side up. Push down on each side of breast with your hands until you hear it crack. Flatten chicken and transfer to one short end of the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the second chicken.
  • Combine salt, tarragon, paprika, and pepper in a small bowl. Stir in oil. Run your fingers under chicken skin and rub tarragon paste under skin. Slide lemon slices under skin, in a single layer.
  • Roast until skin is crisp and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of breast reads 165 degrees F, about 35 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before cutting each chicken into 8 pieces.

CHILLI, GARLIC & OREGANO SPATCHCOCK CHICKEN WITH CHIPOTLE AïOLI



Chilli, garlic & oregano spatchcock chicken with chipotle aïoli image

Take simple ingredients beyond the norm with this fabulous spicy, herby spatchcock chicken with chipotle aïoli. Serve with sweet potato wedges and salad

Provided by Diana Henry

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1.8kg whole chicken
6 garlic cloves , roughly chopped
3 red chillies , halved, deseeded and finely chopped
1 tbsp dried oregano
4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 egg yolk
1 tsp Dijon mustard
2 garlic cloves , grated to a purée
115ml oil (a mixture of groundnut oil and olive oil)
1 tbsp chipotle paste
1 lemon , juiced, to taste (start with about 3 tsp)
sweet potato wedges and salad, to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • To spatchcock the chicken, set the bird on your worktop, breast-side down, legs towards you. Using good kitchen scissors, cut through the flesh and bone along both sides of the backbone. Remove the backbone and keep it for stock (freeze until you've gathered three or four). Open the chicken, turn it over, then flatten it by pressing hard on the breastbone with the heel of your hand. You'll feel it breaking and flattening under your hand. Remove any big globules of fat and neaten any ragged bits of skin. Now you have a spatchcocked bird.
  • Using a pestle and mortar, pound the garlic to a purée with some sea salt flakes. Add the chilli, oregano, extra virgin olive oil and some pepper. Put the chicken in a dish or roasting tin that will fit in your fridge. Gently loosen the skin of the breast, pushing your fingers in between the skin and the flesh. Work your way under the skin, over the legs too, and spoon some of the garlic and herb mixture in under the skin, then spread it all over the chicken, on both sides. Cover with cling film and put in the fridge for a few hours.
  • Mix the egg yolk, mustard and crushed garlic together in a bowl. Using electric beaters or a whisk, start gradually adding the oils in little drops. Make sure that each drop has been incorporated before you add the next. If your mixture splits, just start again with a new egg yolk, and gradually add the curdled mixture to it. Add the chipotle paste, lemon juice to taste and seasoning. Cover and keep in the fridge for up to 4 hrs.
  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Lay the chicken in a roasting tin, breast-side up. Season all over and roast for 1 hr, basting a few times during cooking. To check that the chicken is cooked properly, pierce the bird between the leg and the body - the juices should run clear. Cut into serving pieces and serve with the chipotle aïoli. Roasted sweet potato wedges and a green salad are brilliant on the side. Any leftover aïoli will keep covered in the fridge for two days.
