Game of Thrones Dinner

When thinking about what to make for a Game of Thrones themed dinner I was cooking with my sister roast fowl kept coming to mind... I mean, what's more medieval than roasting an animal carcass nearly whole (aside from this)? Surprise surprise, I turned to Serious Eats that had a lovely tutorial on how to oven roast chicken. If you cut out the spine of a whole bird, effectively butterflying the chicken, and roast it on a wire rack at 400 degrees the thigh meat will hit 170 right when the breast meat hits 150, meaning that the chicken is cooked perfectly the entire way through and both thigh and breast meat are tender and juicy. I also smeared the skin with olive oil, salt, & pepper. It worked like a charm!
