Whole Chicken — Complete & Oven-Ready
Our Whole Chicken arrives oven-ready — cleaned, trimmed and ready to roast, spatchcock or portion into cuts. A whole chicken is the most economical and versatile way to buy chicken: roast it whole on Sunday, use the leftovers for sandwiches and salads, then simmer the carcass for homemade stock.
A properly roasted whole chicken is one of the most satisfying things you can cook: golden, crispy skin, juicy white and dark meat, and a kitchen that smells incredible for hours. The dark meat (thighs and drumsticks) cooks at a slightly different rate than the breast, which is why techniques like spatchcocking (removing the backbone and flattening) produce the most even results.
For classic roast chicken: pat dry, season generously with salt inside and out (ideally the night before), stuff the cavity with lemon and herbs, and roast at 200°C for 20 minutes per 500g plus 20 minutes. Rest for 20 minutes, loosely tented. For spatchcock: remove the backbone, flatten, and roast at 220°C for 35–45 minutes.
Delivered frozen. Defrost in the fridge for 24 hours. Once thawed, use within 2 days. Remove giblets if present. Pat dry thoroughly before roasting for the crispiest skin — moisture is the enemy of crunch.
