Today's late lunch was great. From the feeling in my belly, it may be all I need for the rest of the night. We went to a special function today, I hope to share the pics later in another area. Lunch was at PF Changs. Since it was a new restaurant for me, that meant a new dish that I'd never tried before. I love to do that.
So anyway, I had CHENGDU SPICED LAMB. Too bad there were no pics of the dish to share, but it was good. I don't know if it was the cumin or the mint that I didn't care for, but I would eat it again.

That stuff is surprisingly good!!!
And yeah....I HAD to include that!!!
So, in order to spatch a chicken, all I have to do is remove the backbone, right?
I am assuming it can be made in the oven.

Exactly. You can cut the backbone out with shears or a knife.
Then flip the bird over so it is bone side (cavity side) down and press down on it firmly with your hand to snap the wishbone and make the bird lie flat. You’ll feel a crunch as it snaps when you press down, and the bird will get more compliant with lying flat.
From there, you can grill, broil it, or bake it. It’s your choice.
In the oven, I like to bake uncovered for 25-30 minutes, then switch the oven to Broil to crisp the skin while I add sauce to it. That is, add the sauce at the end, and then switch to broil to get it crispy and caramelized.
I'm game.. we'll see how it goes.
