Spatchcock Chicken

Updated: Aug 21, 2021

For years I thought that 'spatchcock' referred to a breed of poultry. Some of Google say that it's a 3 week old chicken, whether this is true or not 🤷🏻‍♀️

Roasted Spatchcock Chicken

What it means in culinary terms is a method of preparation of poultry - chicken, quail etc - by removing the back bone and flattening the bird down so that you have equal width which allows for quicker and more even cooking.


Lots of words, right?! So we made a video to show you how we spatchcock our chicken & roasted it.


 

STAGES OF THE SPATCHCOCK TECHNIQUE


  1. Turn the chicken breast side down and with a sharp pair of scissors remove the backbone & wish bone.

  2. Turn over and season well

  3. Add herbs, garlic, lemon & olive oil and roast at 190C until golden and well cooked (cooking time varies depending on the size of your chicken) Internal temperature should be above 77C
