This week's recipe is a super easy rub for your whole chicken. It's gluten-free and keto-friendly. This Southwest Spatchcock Chicken Rub recipe is an under-the-skin rub for a whole chicken. It's great for a weeknight meal or a weekend Sunday dish with the family.

I placed it on the grill, but you can also place it in the oven to bake.

We purchased it already spatchcocked, but you can do it yourself. If you don't know how to Spatchcock Chicken, check out this video from Natasha's Kitchen.
