Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. 2. Prep chicken by spatchcocking, then clean and wash well. Pat dry and add 1 ½ tsp of salt per chicken, massage well into birds, and set aside.
  3. 3. To a small mixing bowl, add softened butter and rosemary along with 2 of the 4 tsp of smoked paprika, garlic, onion & garlic powder, thyme, black pepper, and cayenne pepper, and mix well.
  4. 4. Rub butter mixture all over chickens, including under the skin, and place in a roasting pan skin side up (you can also use a baking dish for this recipe).
  5. 5. Add onions to the pan and sprinkle chicken with the remaining 2 tsp of smoked paprika.
  6. 6. Dissolve bouillon cubes into warm water and add to the base of the pan.
  7. 7. Place chicken in the oven and bake until golden brown for 50-55 minutes or until the internal temperature of the chicken is at least 165°F. Rest for 10-15 minutes before carving and serving.

Note

Cook's Notes: 1. Spatchcocking: Flattening the chicken ensures even cooking and faster roasting. 2. Seasoning: Massaging salt into the chicken helps to flavor it throughout. 3. Herb Butter: Rub the herb butter mixture under and over the chicken skin for flavor and moisture. 4. Pan Setup: Onions add flavor, and bouillon water in the pan keeps the chicken moist. 5. Cooking: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches 165°F internally. 6. Resting: Let the chicken rest before carving for juicier meat. 7. Serving: Pair the herb-roasted chicken with your favorite sides for a delicious meal.
