I have yet another confession. I seem to have developed an addiction to air frying foods. It all started a couple of months ago when we received our 8 qt air fryer [3]. Now I had tried air frying before, but not with a machine that could actually fit enough food for a family of 5. That was a game changer in our kitchen, and one of the first things I wanted to nail down was an air fryer [4] whole chicken [5]chicken [5] recipe. We hope that you love this Best Air Fryer Whole Chicken Spatchcock Style recipe.
When Perdue Farms approached me and asked if I would like to try some of their new offerings, this was the first recipe that came to mind. The chicken [5] used here is a Sonoma Red Organic Pasture Raised Whole Chicken [6]. So what is a Sonoma Red chicken? Well, for one, it is a chicken that is slower growing that your average supermarket bird. The distribution of meat is a bit different as well; the thighs tend to be a bit bigger, while the breast and wings a bit smaller. The meat also has more flavor and better texture, at least in my opinion. This is a bird that doesn't need a marinade to taste great. It's a bit more expensive, but that's ok by me; I'll pay a bit more for a higher quality product that I know was humanely raised.
Now I don't know if you know this, but Perdue does more than chicken. Over at the brand new Perdue Farms website [7], you can find all sorts of high quality artisan products that go beyond chicken. Favorites that I have tried so far include the Niman Ranch Kielbasa [8] (really good) and the Fat Tire St. Louis Style Pork Ribs [9]. Both products were excellent, and I cannot wait to try the Niman Ranch Ribeye Steak [10] (I'm a sucker for a good ribeye).
Every single item that is sold on the Perdue Farms site is farmed with sustainability and responsible animal care in mind. Green practices are a priority, as is raising animals that are free of hormones and antibiotics. Check out the Perdue Farms Website when you have a moment; I think you will be surprised at what you find. Now let's cook some chicken!
