List of Ingredients
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon grated gingerroot
1 (4 to 4 1/2-pound) whole roasting chicken
2 garlic cloves, quartered
1 orange, sliced
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons dry sherry or orange juice.Recipe
In small bowl, combine honey, soy sauce and gingerroot; mix well. Rinse chicke, discarding nec and giblets. Pat dry with paper towels.
Place garlic and 2 of the orange slices in chicken cavity. Tie string around legs and tail section, leaving about 6 inches of extra string. Tie string in same way around breast area. String will be used to easily lift chicken from cooker. Cook this chicken in its skin, even if you remove the skin before serving it. The fat under a chicken’s skin bastes, moistens and flavors the meat as it cooks.
Spray 4 to 6 quart slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray. Place chicken, breast side up in sprayed slow cooker with string extending over edge of cooker. Brush chicken with honey mixture.
Cover; cook on low setting for 6 to 8 hours or until chicken is fork-tender and juices run clear.
Using string, carefully lift chicken from slow cooker; place on serving platter. Cover with foil.
In small saucepan, combine cornstarch and sherry; blend well. Add juices from slow cooker; mix well. Cook over medium heat until mixture boils, stirring occasionally. Brush sauce over chicken. Garnish with remaining orange slices and fresh herbs, if desired.
