How to butterfly a chicken:

Notes

  • Searing the chicken skin side down gives the skin a beautiful golden crust even before roasting and spares you from waiting for the skin to crisp up in the oven while worrying about the chicken drying out.
  • Butterflying the chicken speeds up the roasting process and makes for a more evenly cooked chicken.
  • Use any herbs you like for this recipe. Add mint for a Middle Eastern touch, cilantro for a Mexican twist
