Spatchcocked Roasted Chicken with Gochujang Butter

Our Korean-inspired seasoning paste elevates a simple roast chicken with spicy-sweet flavor. The blend includes softened butter, gochujang and honey, plus fresh ginger and garlic, which mellow and sweeten as they cook. We smear the mixture under the bird’s skin, directly on the meat, so it takes on the bold flavors. Gochujang, one of our pantry staples, is a fermented chili paste commonly used in Korean cooking; it is loaded with spiciness, a hint of sweetness and lots of umami. You’ll find it in the international section of the supermarket or in Asian grocery stores. Serve with steamed rice.
