Slow-Roast Gochujang Chicken

Name: Slow-Roast Gochujang Chicken
Cuisine: Korean
Ingredients: 1 3½–4-lb. whole chicken; 1 Tbsp. Diamond Crystal or 1¾ tsp. Morton kosher salt, plus more; Freshly ground black pepper; 5 Tbsp. gochujang (Korean hot pepper paste); ¼ cup plus 2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil; 2 heads of garlic; 1 ½" piece fresh ginger; 1½ lb. baby Yukon Gold potatoes (about 1½" in diameter); 5 scallions; 2 limes; 2 tsp. honey

Instructions

This isn’t the crisp-skinned, high-heat-roast chicken you’re probably familiar with. Instead, it’s a melt-in-your-mouth tender, schmaltzy, slow-roast version that’s more akin to a rotisserie chicken than anything else, except (bonus!) it gets slathered in gochujang!
