Ingredients
- For the Sauce:
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons prepared horseradish
- 2 tablespoons
- For the Chicken:
- 2 tablespoons , ground
- 2 tablespoons Bay Leaf & Black Pepper Meyer Lemon Paste
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 1 whole roasting chicken, 4-5 pounds, spatchcocked
Directions
For the Sauce:
Combine the ingredients in a wide mouthed pint jar. Stir or shake well to combine. This sauce gets better with time! Make a few hours ahead for maximum flavor.
For the Chicken:Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large sheet pan with foil and a wire grid rack, spray with oil.
In a small bowl, combine the Smoky BBQ Rub, lemon paste and oil, stir to combine into a paste.
Lay the chicken on the grid rack and spread the spice paste under the skin and all over the bird.
Put the pan in the oven and check after 15-20 minutes. If the skin is darkened and crispy, tent with foil to prevent burning. Continue roasting until the thickest part of the breast reaches 165 degrees, 30-40 minutes more.
Notes:If you don't have Meyer Lemon Paste on hand, you can substitute the juice of one lemon and 1-1/2 teaspoons of�Diamond Crystal - Kosher Salt .
