Simon & Garfunkel Chicken Recipe - 2 salts?

[Stevo]

Hey Meathead, I'm looking at your S&G Chicken recipe and I see it has two salt amounts listed in the ingredients: 1.5tsp kosher salt and .5tsp kosher salt in the recipe. Is this an error? How much salt would you dry brine a 3-4lb bird parted out? Thanks!

In the event that Meathead is once again roaming the planet, I just checked the book and it only lists 1.5 tsp kosher salt. The second salt entry (.5 tsp) is not there.

With kosher I just sprinkle a pinch on each piece hand way up in the air. Carefully on the opposite side so as not to over salt. Right on the skin it works is way in.
Also I find the brand matters Morton has bigger flakes than say Diamond Crystal so you need a little less. The only time I over salted was after switching brands and not adjusting. A bit less with Morton.
S&G rub chicken is one of my favorite meals.
