Sweet and Spicy Sriracha Soy Chicken

Honey Soy Sriracha Spatchcock Chicken is a type of roasted chicken where the whole chicken is butterflied, backbones removed then marinated in a sauce made with garlic, soy sauce, Sriracha and honey. So what is the difference if I roast it without preparing it like such? Well there are many benefits in preparing it like this, first it cooks faster as the thickness is lesser, it absorbs more flavours as you can easily marinate the chicken from the inside, the skin is crispier as the surface area is larger and it’s on one side plus it will be juicer since the time to cook is reduced making it moist and less prone to drying out.

Before I used to roast chicken as a whole but after making this I will not go back, matching this with a perfect blend of marinade it’s a chicken that surely better than finger licking good. Match this dish with something creamy to have a perfect combination, salad like coleslaw or anything dressed with ranch plus mashed potatoes are the best with this.

    1. Hi there, this recipe is here because we are happy to have writers, cooks and readers from around the world, and most of the world uses Centigrade. If you do not want to cook in Centigrade, no worries! Simply Google “C to F” and a conversion tool will pop up… but to save ya the trouble 180C is 350 degrees Fahrenheit ;) Happy cooking!
