Ingredients

Main

  • 4-5 pounds whole spatchcocked chicken
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 0.25 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley
  • 1 tablespoon dried thyme
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced or grated
  • 1 head garlic, halved
  • 1 large lemon, halved

Instructions 

  • Pat the chicken dry, season with salt and pepper, and dry brine for 2 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Mix olive oil, parsley, thyme, rosemary, and garlic; season with salt and pepper.
  • Place chicken in a baking dish with halved garlic and lemon, coat with herb mixture, and distribute evenly.
  • Roast for 40-50 minutes until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and skin is crispy. Baste halfway and rotate for even crispness.
  • Rest for 15 minutes, then carve, serve with pan juices, lemon, and roasted garlic.
