Categories     Chicken     Roast     Dinner

Yield 6 people

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ½ cups buttermilk or plain yogurt
1 cup packed basil leaves
¼ cup packed chives
2 garlic cloves, peeled
2 anchovy fillets (optional)
1 scallion, white and green parts
Finely grated zest and juice of 1 lime
2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 (4- to 5-pound) chicken, halved through the breast and back bones, patted dry with paper towels
1 to 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling

Steps:

  • 1. In a blender, purée buttermilk, basil, chives, garlic, anchovies (if using), scallion, lime zest and juice, salt and pepper until smooth. 2. Put chicken halves in a bowl or large heavy-duty resealable plastic bag and cover with three-quarters of the Green Goddess marinade. (Save the rest to serve as a sauce.) Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or up to overnight. 3. Heat oven to 500 degrees. Remove chicken from the marinade, shaking off as much liquid as possible, and lay the halves on a rimmed baking sheet. (Discard the used marinade.) Pat chicken tops dry with paper towels and drizzle with oil. Roast until cooked through, about 30 to 45 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving, with some of the reserved sauce if you like.

This chicken was amazing! The sauce was so creamy and flavorful, and the chicken was cooked to perfection. I served it with roasted potatoes and asparagus, and it was a perfect meal.
