Roasted Spatchcocked Chicken with Potatoes image

There is absolutely nothing better than a perfectly roasted chicken. Wouldn't you agree? Perfect juicy meat and crunchy skin... Thanks to my father and his visit this past weekend, I have learned a new method for roasting a hen -- spatchcocking!

Time 1h40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 serving cooking spray
2 sweet potatoes, sliced very thinly
2 Yukon Gold potatoes, sliced
1 large onion, sliced
1 (2 to 3 pound) roasting chicken
2 tablespoons olive oil, or to taste
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease the top and bottom of a broiler pan with cooking spray.
  • Layer sweet potatoes, potatoes, and onion slices in the bottom of the broiler pan.
  • Place chicken, breast side down, on a work surface. Cut along both sides of the backbone with kitchen shears from top to bottom; remove backbone. Flip chicken and splay it open. Press firmly onto breasts with your hands to break the breast-bone.
  • Brush olive oil over chicken. Season with salt and pepper. Place on the broiler pan top.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 1 hour.
  • Let cool before slicing, about 10 minutes. Serve with potato and onion mixture.

This is my go-to recipe for roasted chicken. It's simple to make and always turns out delicious.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The chicken is so moist and flavorful, and the potatoes are always crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my chicken came out dry and overcooked. The potatoes were fine, though.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I like to add some chopped vegetables to the potatoes for a more colorful dish.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my chicken didn't come out as juicy as I would have liked. Maybe I should have cooked it for a little less time.

I've never cooked a spatchcocked chicken before, but this recipe made it easy. The chicken was cooked evenly throughout, and the potatoes were perfectly roasted. I'll definitely be making this again.
