Corn-Fed Poussin (Baby Chicken), 2 x +/-500g

This month-old chicken is also known as a poussin, and the flesh is wonderfully tender. The flavour isn't quite as rich as a fully-grown adult, so feel free to use plenty of spices, sauces, glazes and herbs to add a little bite to the melting meat and make some more 'out there' dishes.

Ever tried spatchcocking a bird? The small frame and softness of coquelets makes them an ideal candidate for this preparation technique, and they taste amazing cooked with a fiery mustard butter glaze.
