Baked Spatchcock Chicken
Spatchcock Chicken is just a fancy word for butterflied chicken. Cooked this way there is no cavity in the chicken and it all cooks evenly.

Lol – What a wonderful naming, Diane! At first on the fly i had read “Hitchcocked Chicken”. But such a chicken maybe would be one which has murdered itself. 😉 Thanks for another great recipe idea, and have a nice weekend! xx Michael

That cut is a popular way to grill chicken at the food stands in Mexico.

Fascinating! I bet because it gets cooked so much faster. It is so much more moist with the skin covering the entire top of the chicken.

It definitely looks delicious Diane! I love the herbs you have used on the chicken – that’s normally the herbs we use too (since we have fresh rosemary and thyme in pots, we use that). Anything chicken is a great meal!

Growing up it was roast chicken on Sundays – at our house or my grandmothers. Not this fancy though Diane!

Back then we had the same food on certain days of the week. How times have changed. Nothing fancy about this Linda, it’s just chicken cut in half basically.

That was our family to a “T” and Fridays we always had salmon croquettes with corn and mashed potatoes and occasionally, my mother would buy Mrs. Paul’s fish sticks and say they were for the baby (though I was no longer a kid). It wasn’t Lent, but we didn’t eat meat on Fridays and I’ve continued that tradition. I always marveled watching my mom prepare a chicken or cornish hens for stuffing them. I would watch the whole process and not sure I could do it as I’m a bit squeamish.

I think your Mom is smiling that you kept her Friday tradition.
