Green-Garlic-Rubbed Buttery Roast Chicken

Green-Garlic-Rubbed Buttery Roast Chicken

By Elizabeth Jaime, Bon Appétit

Roasting a whole chicken quickly at high heat is optimal for the crispiest skin but risks overcooking the meat. This method of going low and slow is much gentler on the meat, keeping it juicy yet shreddable underneath the skin that crackles. The green garlic has a mild, fresh flavor (much less bite than regular garlic, but you can use that here too). As the chicken cooks, the green garlic dries out and turns into a crispy crumb topping.


Yield

4 servings


Ingredients

  • 1 3½–4-lb. whole chicken, patted dry
  • 8 green garlic stalks, dark green tops removed, divided
  • 6 Tbsp. unsalted butter, room temperature
  • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil

Preparation

  • Season chicken all over inside and out with salt and pepper (make sure to get in and around every nook and cranny; about 4 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 2½ tsp. Morton kosher salt). Place on a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet and let sit at room temperature while you make the garlic butter, or chill, uncovered, up to 1 day. If chilling, let sit at room temperature 1 hour before roasting.
  • Place a rack in middle of oven; preheat to 325°. Coarsely chop 4 green garlic stalks; transfer to a food processor. Pulse until very finely chopped. Add zest and butter and pulse until almost smooth. Cut remaining 4 green garlic stalks in half lengthwise; set aside.
  • Pat chicken dry again with paper towels (this will help the butter adhere and get the skin nicely browned). Smear garlic butter all over chicken. Gently lift the skin on the breast away from the flesh and rub some butter inside.
  • Toss reserved green garlic and oil in a large cast-iron skillet or 13x9" baking dish to coat; season with salt. Tie chicken legs together with kitchen twine and tuck wings underneath back. Place chicken, breast side up, on top of garlic in skillet.
  • Roast chicken, rotating pan halfway through for even browning, until skin is golden and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of breast registers 155° (don’t worry; temperature will climb to 165° as the chicken rests), 80–90 minutes. Let chicken rest at least 20 minutes and up to 45 minutes.
  • Transfer chicken to a cutting board and carve as desired. Serve with roasted green garlic alongside.
