Ingredients
4.5-5 pound whole chicken Ensure the giblets have been removed.
1 tablespoon olive oil Use enough to completely cover the chicken.
Creole Seasoned Chicken
1/2 tablespoon Creole Seasoning
1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
salt and pepper to taste
Traditional Chicken Seasoning and Rub (You can use your favorite store-bought chicken rub if you wish).
1 teaspoon ground thyme
1 teaspoon ground rosemary
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Ensure the giblets have been removed from the inside of your chicken.
Pat the chicken dry. This is important because it will help the spices adhere to the chicken for optimal flavor.
Place the chicken breast side down and locate the backbone of the chicken. It runs down the middle of the back and below the neck.
Glide your sharp cooking shears or knife along the side of the backbone and cut to remove it. Do this for both sides of the backbone to remove it completely.
Flip the chicken over and flatten the breasts of the chicken you should hear a crack. Turn the drumsticks so that they are positioned properly. I like to tuck the wings back below the breast. This helps keep them from browning quickly and is great for presentation.
Rub the chicken down with olive oil and sprinkle the spices throughout. Rub the spices into the chicken.
Air fry for 35-45 minutes on 350 degrees.
Your cook time will vary based on the size chicken you have and the air fryer you use. You will need to test if the chicken is done by using a meat thermometer. Insert the thermometer into the thickest area of the chicken. This is often the thigh. Ensure the temperature has reached a minimum of 165 degrees. I typically test multiple areas of the chicken to be safe. (See notes.)
Allow the chicken to rest for at least 15 minutes prior to slicing. I allow it to rest in the air fryer basket outside of the air fryer unit.
