Spatchcock chicken
With a kitchen shears I cut on both sides of backbone on a whole chicken & pressed it flat (breast up) on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper. Rubbed on a homemade seasoning mixture. Arranged vegetables around & popped it in the oven about 90 minutes. I checked with meat thermometer. We got 3 meals from it because it was good sized bird. I make my own broth from vegetable pieces that are normally discarded (celery ends, tough broccoli stems, etc) so I have a plastic bag of that stuff in the freezer at all times. The backbone went in the bucket.
