Recipe Summary
Ingredients
Directions
Make Ahead
The pickled fennel can be refrigerated in its brine for 5 days.
Notes
Refrigerating the chicken uncovered overnight dries out the skin so it’s crisper once it’s roasted. Refrigerate the bird on a rack set on a rimmed baking sheet.
Suggested Pairing
Pair this dish with a restrained California Chardonnay.
