It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
Butterflied Chicken with Lemon & Rosemary
- add review
- #6381

ingredients
1 butterflied chicken (approx. 3.5 to 4 lbs.)
3 long sprigs of fresh rosemary
1 lemon, juiced
more lemons to serve
1 red onion
6 tablespoons olive oil
Maldon or other sea salt
directions
(to butterfly a chicken just cut through the backbone from tail to the neck using poultry scissors open chicken up and wash out cavity)
Sprinkle sea salt over chicken. Put chicken into a large freezer bag. Pull the waxily aromatic needles off 2 of the springs of rosemary and drop them on top.
Cut lemon in half and squeeze juice into the bag, chucking the rinds into the bag afterwards. Pour in olive oil and then close bag. Give it a good squeeze around the edges before placing in the refrigerator. Marinate chicken for a couple of hours, or overnight--even a couple of days.
Preheat oven to 425. Once chicken is at room temperature, spread chicken out (skin side up) along with lemon rinds and onion pieces (cut onion into quarters) on a foil-lined roasting pan. Add remaining sprig of rosemary torn into a few pieces and tucked into leg and breast of chicken. Cook for 45 minutes. The chicken should be crisp-skinned and tender. Take the pan out and cut chicken into four pieces. Arrange on a platter with onions and more lemon wedges.

Nutritional data has not been calculated yet.The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

This recipe is terrific! I marinated it overnight, which intensified the flavours. I would think you could use chicken pieces rather than a whole chicken if desired-wings would be fantastic. Roasting at 425 for 45 minutes didn't work for me, set off my smoke detector alot, between the chicken skin and the olive oil. Next time, I will bake at 375 for an hour or so, lightly covered with foil. I would remove the foil for the last 20 minutes of cooking-and I'll definitely make this again.
