You can make this recipe with a large Cast Iron skillet, which is our preferred pan. It is oven safe, which is a must, as this dish requires some stovetop cooking as well as roasting in the Oven. Any oven-safe pan will work, but we recommend using a Cast Iron if you\u2019ve got one handy. They conduct heat better than any other pan, which means you\u2019ll achieve an even cook throughout

Breaking down the Chicken<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For our Cast Iron Tarragon Chicken recipe, we use a whole Chicken. Using a whole Chicken has several benefits, but the main one is cost. You\u2019ll pay far less for a Whole Chicken that you can easily break down yourself at home than buying individually prepared pieces from the store

The dish uses a Whole Chicken, which ensures no wastage and a much more cost efficient way to enjoy Chicken<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

This dish uses all elements of the Chicken, so nothing will go to waste. The Chicken Thighs and Breasts are cooked at the same time, but the Wings will need to be cooked a little differently to ensure an even cook. For this dish we keep the bones in the Chicken, which adds flavor but also makes breaking down the Chicken a lot easier

There are loads of great videos out there on the best way to break down a whole Chicken. I would recommend you try this one as it shows how to break down the Chicken while keeping the bones
