SPATCHCOCK CHICKEN WITH PAPRIKA AND OLIVE OIL - BONNIE STERN



Spatchcock Chicken With Paprika and Olive Oil - Bonnie Stern image

Bonnie Stern has done it again. Another splendid recipe, and so very easy to make. I highly recommend following her directions for flattening the chicken...so simple, you'll find yourself preparing chicken this way often. Also, don't forget to tuck the leg bone into the slitted skin. Makes for a very nice presentation and prevents the chicken from having that 'floppy leg' appearance. Bonnie has also included instructions for grilling, Prep time does not included time to marinade, as this will vary from person to person.

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 roasting chicken, approx. 3 lbs
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 tablespoon paprika
1/2 tablespoon kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 garlic clove, minced

Steps:

  • Cut out back bone from chicken. Open flat and remove breast bone. If you wish, cut slits in the skin between the white and dark meat and insert chicken drumsticks for a neat presentation.
  • In a bowl combine olive oil, paprika, salt, pepper and garlic. Place chicken in the dish or plastic bag and coat well. Marinate 10 minutes at room temperature or up to overnight in the refrigerator.
  • To roast, place chicken, skin side up, on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in a preheated 375F (190C) oven for approximately 45 minutes to one hour or until golden brown and a meat thermometer reads 165F (75C) when inserted into a thigh.
  • To grill chicken, place bone side down on a hot grill for 5 minutes. Turn and cook skin side down for a few minutes to brown. Place chicken bone side down on indirect heat now (cooler place on the grill) and cook 30 to 45 minutes longer until cooked through.

Spatchcock Chicken Recipe In The Oven image

This spatchcock chicken recipe in the oven turns out perfectly juicy every time, with super crispy skin. Learn how to spatchcock a chicken step by step -- it's EASY!

Provided by Maya Krampf

Categories     Main Course

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 lb Whole chicken
6 tbsp Unsalted butter
2 tbsp Fresh parsley
1 tsp Italian seasoning
3 cloves Garlic ((crushed))
2 tbsp Olive oil
1/2 tbsp Sea salt
1 tsp Paprika
1/4 tsp Black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (232 degrees C). Place an oven safe rack over a baking sheet.
  • If possible, let the chicken rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before roasting. (This will ensure more even cooking.)
  • Place the chicken onto a cutting board, breast side down. Use kitchen shears to cut away the spine. (You can discard it or use it to make gravy.)
  • Use your hands to open up the chicken like a book, then flip it over, open side down. Use the heel of your hand to push down on the chicken breast, which will crush the breast bone and allow the chicken to lay flat.
  • Transfer the butterflied chicken to the rack over the baking sheet, breast side up.
  • To make compound butter, mash together butter, parsley, Italian seasoning, and crushed garlic.
  • Run your hands under the chicken skin on the breast and legs to separate it from the chicken underneath. Place dollops of compound butter all over underneath the skin and then press down over the skin to spread around underneath.
  • Drizzle olive oil over the chicken, over the skin. Sprinkle with sea salt, paprika, and black pepper.
  • Roast in the oven for 40-50 minutes, until a thermometer in the thickest part of the breast reaches 160 degrees F (71 degrees C). (Temperature will rise about 5 degrees while resting.)
  • Remove chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before cutting into it.

ROASTED SPATCHCOCK CHICKEN



Roasted Spatchcock Chicken image

When you have a famous chef for a dad, you learn how to enjoy good food early on - and if you're Madeline and Anna Zakarian, you learn how to cook it, too. The daughters of Geoffrey Zakarian have been in training for years, helping with family dinners and assisting Dad with cooking demos at press events, on Good Morning America and on his Food Network show The Kitchen. Now the 13- and 11-year-old girls are releasing their first cookbook, The Family That Cooks Together, a collection of 85 recipes that they love making at home. Don't expect chicken fingers: These young chefs have grown up learning to appreciate dishes like linguine with fresh clams and strawberry soufflé. Anna promises that they're not trying to intimidate anyone; the idea is to show kids that fancy-sounding food can be really easy to make. For this spatchcock chicken, they use a dad-approved shortcut and get the chicken split open at the butcher. Then they just roast it and serve it with rice for a quick dinner. "We want to show people of all ages that you can cook delicious things," Madeline says.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (3 1/2-pound) whole spatchcock chicken
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 heads garlic, cut in half horizontally
4 sprigs fresh rosemary
4 sprigs fresh thyme
1 lemon, cut in half horizontally

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400˚ F. Rinse the chicken, pat dry and rub all over with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Generously season on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Heat a large cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. When the oil is hot, place the chicken, skin side down, in the pan. Cook until the skin starts to crisp on the edges and the color is golden brown. Flip the chicken over with tongs, taking care not to splatter oil toward yourself, and add the garlic, rosemary and thyme around the chicken in the pan. Squeeze a lemon half over the top and place both lemon halves in the pan, cut sides down.
  • Transfer the pan to the oven and roast the chicken (skin side up) for 30 to 35 minutes, until a meat thermometer registers 155˚ F when inserted in the thickest part of a breast. Let rest for about 10 minutes, then carve and serve with pan juices.

Number Of Ingredients 3

One 3 1/2- to 4-pound whole chicken
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 fresh thyme sprigs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

SPICE-RUBBED SPATCHCOCKED CHICKEN



Spice-Rubbed Spatchcocked Chicken image

A spatchcocked chicken, also called a butterflied chicken, cooks more quickly and evenly than a whole bird, giving you juicy white meat as well as dark meat in less than an hour. Here the chicken is marinated in a brown sugar and chile spice rub before being roasted until its skin is crisp and deeply flavored. If you aren't up for spatchcocking your own bird, you can ask your butcher to do it for you.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     dinner, poultry, main course

Time 3h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 chicken, 3 1/2 to 4 pounds, patted dry
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon ancho or New Mexico chile powder
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 teaspoon dry mustard powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
2 bay leaves, torn or cut into pieces
Lime or lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Spatchcock the chicken by using poultry shears or kitchen scissors (or a sharp knife) to cut along one side of the backbone until the chicken opens. If you like you can cut along the other side of the backbone and remove it, or leave it attached to roast with the rest of the bird. Open up the bird and place it so it lies flat, breast side up. Press hard onto the center of the breast until you feel a pop, and the breast lies more or less flat.
  • In a small bowl, mix together sugar, salt, chile powder, paprika, mustard powder, oregano, pepper, allspice and bay leaves. Smear the mixture all over the chicken. Lay chicken, skin side up, on a rimmed baking sheet (or plate) and refrigerate uncovered for at least 2 hours and up to 24 hours.
  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. If the chicken isn't on a rimmed baking sheet, transfer it to one. Roast chicken until the juices run clear when the thickest part of the thigh is pricked with a fork (an instant-read thermometer plunged into the thickest part of the breast will read 150), 40 to 50 minutes.
  • Remove from oven, cover bird with foil and let rest for 10 minutes before carving. Serve with lime or lemon wedges on the side.

Tips:

  • Choose a Plump Chicken: Opt for a chicken that's plump and heavy for its size, indicating a well-nourished bird with more meat.
  • Use Sharp Kitchen Shears: Invest in a pair of sharp kitchen shears to ensure a clean and precise spatchcocking process.
  • Flatten the Chicken Correctly: Press down firmly on the chicken's backbone to flatten it completely. This will help it cook evenly.
  • Generously Season the Chicken: Don't be shy with the seasoning! Rub the chicken inside and out with flavorful herbs, spices, and a good amount of salt and pepper.
  • Let the Chicken Rest: Allow the chicken to rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This will help the juices redistribute, resulting in a more succulent and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

Spatchcock chicken with paprika and olive oil is a delectable and versatile dish that's perfect for any occasion. Whether you're hosting a dinner party or simply looking for an easy weeknight meal, this recipe is sure to impress. The combination of paprika, olive oil, and herbs creates a wonderfully aromatic and flavorful chicken that's crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside.
