poultry shears

Bird-cutting kitchen tool

Poultry shears are heavy-duty scissors designed for cutting through poultry—splitting chickens, removing backbones, trimming wings.

They typically have curved blades, a spring-loaded handle, and often a notch near the pivot for cracking bones.

Use the poultry shears to spatchcock the chicken.
