Ingredients

  • 0.5 cup raisins
  • 1 tablespoon chopped peanuts
  • 0.5 cup honey
  • 1 teaspoon prepared mustard
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 0.25 cup butter
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 (3 pound) whole chicken

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  2. In a medium saucepan over low heat combine the raisins, peanuts, honey, mustard, syrup and butter; stir all together until a medium thick glaze has formed, then leave on burner to cook slowly. Stir occasionally to keep from burning.
  3. Bake hen at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for about 1 hour or until bird is cooked through and juices run clear. Baste hen thoroughly with prepared glaze every 10 to 15 minutes while baking; when hen is cooked through and ready to serve, garnish with orange zest.
