Sunday Roasted Chicken, the Efficient Way · 12:01 · Video: Ethan Chlebowski · Watch at the source

In short: Spatchcocking, or butterflying, a chicken is the most efficient way to achieve crispy skin and succulent meat in about an hour. This method simplifies the traditional Sunday roast, leaving you with a delicious meal and leftover bones for stock.

Spatchcocking involves removing the backbone to flatten the bird, which allows it to cook more evenly and quickly than a whole chicken. This preparation method is a staple for those seeking a balance between culinary tradition and efficiency.

Beyond the main meal, the process yields bones that can be repurposed into a stock for soup. The dish pairs well with roasted vegetables, potatoes, or a simple salad, and can be enhanced with accompaniments like a Peruvian-inspired green sauce.
