Spatchcocked Roast Chicken is a really tasty easy thing to make for a group of people. You basically just have to figure out how to spatchcock it, which is just taking out the backbone and pressing it down to make it lie flat. The rest is just seasoning it and putting it into the oven for close to an hour and you have a juicy centerpiece protein that goes good with roasted potatoes and a vegetable like brussel sprouts or asparagus

Spatchcocking a whole chicken is my go to because it can last me the week. Seems intimidating at first, but one youtube short later and you can cook a whole chicken in under an hour at 425° F. Plus with the shorter cook time, potatoes, carrots, etc. can go in at the same time, in the same pan. Minimal attention.
I eat part of it the day of and usually end up using the chicken breasts for sandwiches or stir fry later.

This is one of the items on household menu that makes a comeback at least once every two weeks. Hot take though? This is like a Thanksgiving dinner done in an hour, but better. Also, did you know that a whole chicken is under $10? Anyways, Adam Ragusea is one of my favorite people on Youtube because he bases his cooking philosophy around not having to weigh or measure things. To me, I think it's one of the most painful things about cooking something new for the first time. This is very forgiving recipe, and you're nearly guaranteed an easy and delicious chicken dinner.

Just because I see a window to get across the street doesn’t mean you don’t have to look both ways. I’ve been on the other side of that though…

I met Erin (@RIOTGRRRL) and Jake (@SLOWDAZZLE) last year after I started using PI.FYI—we organized a meetup before a Jonathan Richman show and immediately clicked over our shared taste in music and similar sensibilities. We started hanging out a lot and had some great times together. I’ve also gotten to know many of their friends, who are all really cool. Erin and Jake started dating a couple of months after the three of us became friends, but our group chat still pops off. Their friendship has meant a lot to me, especially since moving to NYC in 2023, and I really appreciate having them in my life.
