Steps:

• For the chicken: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place the chicken, breast-side up, in the center of a roasting pan (see Cook's Note). Sprinkle liberally with salt and roast, undisturbed, 25 minutes. Remove and let the par-cooked chicken rest (the breast skin should be nicely browned).

Finely chop the arugula and place in a medium bowl along with the toasted breadcrumbs.

Add the peppercorns and butter to the bowl with the breadcrumbs and arugula and mix well.
• Gently pat the crust on top of the chicken breast. Place the chicken back in the oven and roast until the juices run clear or a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh (avoiding bone) registers 160 to 165 degrees F, an additional 25 to 35 minutes (see Cook's Note).
