Ingredients

• 1 3-4 lbs whole chicken
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 4 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1.5 pounds baby potatoes, halved
• 4 carrots, cut into chunks
• 2 red bell peppers, sliced
• 1 yellow onion, sliced
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Prepare the marinade by mixing olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, smoked paprika, oregano, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl.

Step 3

Pat the whole chicken dry with paper towels. Spatchcock the chicken by cutting out the backbone with kitchen shears and pressing it flat. This allows for even cooking.

Step 4

Rub the marinade generously all over the chicken, including under the skin. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for deeper flavor).

Step 5

In a large mixing bowl, toss the baby potatoes, carrots, bell peppers, and onion slices with olive oil, salt, and pepper.

Step 6

Place the marinated spatchcocked chicken on a large rimmed baking sheet or roasting pan, breast side up.

Step 7

Arrange the seasoned vegetables around the chicken in an even layer.

Step 8

Roast in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) when measured in the thickest part of the thigh.

Step 9

If the chicken skin is not browned to your liking, broil for an additional 2-3 minutes at the end of cooking, keeping a close watch to prevent burning.

Step 10

Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute.

Step 11

Garnish with fresh chopped parsley, if desired, and serve the chicken alongside the roasted vegetables. Enjoy!
