Spatchcock Chicken

Spatchcock or butterfly chicken is a way to prepare chicken. You remove the backbone, then break the breast bone by pressing firmly with both hands against a hard surface, such as a chopping board, and then follow along to flatten your chicken. This ensures that the spatchcock chicken is cooked evenly, and also helps to cook the meat faster and crisp up the chicken skin even more. So if you’re going to grill a whole chicken we reckon that this is one of the best ways to do it. You can find numerous tutorials online on how to spatchcock a chicken, but also you can ask for help at your local butcher or over the counter at a supermarket and they can do this for you. Once you have your chicken ready, seasoning is very important. For this, we use olive oil, Gran Luchito Guajillo Fajita & Taco Mix, and a bit of salt. This is all then rubbed onto the skin and inside the crevices of your chicken. This spice blend has everything you need to make your spatchcock chicken recipe super tasty, and we can guarantee that everyone in your family will love it and you’ll keep making it over and over! This spatchcock chicken recipe is easy to adapt, so you can either cook the chicken on a grill for a smoky taste or do an oven-roasted spatchcock chicken as an easy midweek meal.
