You will never find a turkey at our house on Thanksgiving! I prefer chicken over turkey every day, ESPECIALLY “Turkey Day,” and I’m not backing down. I’ve tried every method out there for cooking a turkey, but chicken is just way more delicious, holds better throughout the meal without getting dry, and is tastier. You don’t need a giant roasting pan to make a chicken, even if you need to make two chickens to feed a larger family. This one cooks in a 13x9-inch baking dish using carrots as a rack to elevate the bird and make sure it’s niceee and crispy. You know what else helps? Slathering the whole thing with lots of garlicky-herb butter. It’s so easy you’ll want to make it every week, not just on Thanksgiving.
