Recipe Description
There’s nothing more comforting when the weather is cold than a roast chicken dinner and I have one for you a little different. Sheet pan roast chicken & vegetables cook up faster than roasting a whole chicken and everything is cooked in one sheet pan. Roasting time is cut almost in half when you spatchcock a chicken. What is that you ask? This is when you remove the backbone a whole chicken and open it up. I posted an easy tutorial a little while ago, you can find it here. The chicken is then marinated in lemon juice and spices to give it so much flavor.
