Broiled Butterflied Chicken

Tonight I was in the mood for one of my favorite types of meals - American comfort food. Roast chicken, salty potatoes, and a yummy roasted veggie. I couldn't decide what to do with the chicken. I knew I wanted to butterfly it and roast it, but I couldn't decide on flavorings. I finally settled on a modified recipe from Good Eats (I roasted the chicken instead of broiling it).

The potatoes were really excellent. And easy to make. Salty, not as much lemon as I expected. Larry loved them. The butternut squash was good too.
