Cooking Tips: Our Green Circle heritage chicken can be cooked whole, spatchcocked, or cut into parts. Butter or duck fat rubbed all over the outside helps crisp and brown the skin. If roasting whole, try stuffing the cavity with aromatics like lemon, onion, or herbs. Green Circle chicken is cooked when an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast and thigh registers 165 degrees F and juices run clear. When buying a whole chicken, remember to stash the bones away in the freezer after you’ve eaten the meat to make stock. Chicken stock is one of the secrets of great chefs – they use it in place of water in many recipes, as a base for sauces, and to impart umami to vegetable dishes.
