Let’s learn how to spatchcock a chicken
Remove the bird from the bag and clean out the cavity
Optionally rinse it and pat it dry with a paper towel.
Remove any leftover feathers.
Place back side up and find the oysters.
Avoid the oysters when cutting out the backbone and save as a pit snack.
Using a sharp knife or poultry shears cut along one side of the backbone
Optionally cut along the other side of the backbone and remove it
Make a small slit in the cartilage between the breasts
Put a hand on each side and press down to splay it out
Flip it around and use your thumbs to loosen the keel bone and pull it out
Flip it over and tuck the wings, secure with toothpicks if they don’t want to stay tucked on their own
