Sometimes the simplest coating delivers the biggest reward. Here a whisked-together blend of butter, flour, and paprika is brushed straight onto the bird, then baked hot so it sets into a burnished, faintly smoky crust with almost no fuss. There is no dredging station to clean up and no frying involved, just a golden roast chicken that tastes far more elaborate than its short ingredient list suggests.
