Short and Sweet: Whole Roasted Chicken
Short and Sweet: Whole Roasted Chicken
Available 14 left
The chicken is a humble bird, but one that can lead to great nourishment, comfort and joy. Let’s not underestimate the power of a perfectly roasted chicken! Our chef, Gracie, loves to make an herbed compound butter and carefully place it under the skin of a spatchcocked chicken, roast it over leeks, lemons and potatoes and not waste a single drop of the delicious chicken fat that renders off as the bird cooks. For those of you seeking a go-to, fail-proof approach to roasting a whole chicken, this is the short and sweet class for you! We’ll use the leftover chicken drippings to make a quick gravy as well as a finger licking dressing for an herbaceous salad.Â

Gracie Schatz has been in the food industry for over fifteen years. In her career, Gracie has worked in a variety of places: as a baker and private chef in Eugene, OR, farming and cooking in Italy, raising pigs in the Sierra Foothills, butchering at the Fatted Calf in San Francisco, managing Avedano’s in Bernal Heights, cooking at Bay Area restaurants Molina and Cala and her own pop-up restaurant, Bread and Bones Supper. In Eugene, she started her own food justice nonprofit, Marigold Cooking Collective. After working with 18 Reasons as a guest instructor for the past 7 years, Gracie has decided to move from Eugene to San Francisco and join us as our head Chef. Her dream is to never stop learning about delicious food, to never stop exploring the many nuanced ways that food brings us joy, connection to culture, identity, seasons and community. 18 Reasons feels like the perfect place to explore this dream and she is so excited to be here!
