Spatchcocked Lemon Rosemary Chicken

Spatchcocked Lemon Rosemary Chicken sounds like a fancy dish but this one I buy from Trader Joe’s in the refrigerated section where they sell other chicken products. Spatchcocked Lemon Rosemary Chicken is a great, simple weekday dinner dish. The chicken is pre-marinated and oven-ready. As the chicken cooks the skin gets deliciously crispy and the meat is infused with a wonderful lemony flavor. Weekday cooking doesn’t get easier than this!

I have cooked this chicken in the oven and on the bbq. Both ways result in crispy skin with moist, tender meat. Be sure to eat the lemons too. They are delicious once they are cooked and bring just the right tang.

Ingredients

  • 1 Spatchcocked chicken from Trader Joe's

Instructions

  • Pre heat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Use the Roast setting if you have it, otherwise use Bake.
  • Trim any excess fat.
  • Line baking pan with foil or parchment and place chicken skin side up.
  • Roast or Bake for 75 minutes.
  • Serve on a platter and garnish as desired.

Notes

Prepare this chicken either in the oven or on the bbq, either way produces great results.
Check to see if any fat needs to be trimmed before cooking.
Add more lemon slices and rosemary to amplify the flavors if desired.
When working with raw chicken always use a separate cutting board and be sure to wash it and the counter thoroughly.  I have a dedicated cutting board for chicken.

Recipe is from Trader Joe’s.
