Roast Chicken With Kasha Stuffing And Honey Glaze

Mr. Muller began this work in such a manner that aid could not be expected from anyone but God. He did not, of course, expect God to create gold and silver and put them into his hands. He knew that God could incline the hearts of men to aid him, and he believed that if the work was of Him, He would meet every need. Thus, in childlike simplicity, he looked to God, and all that he needed was furnished as punctually as if he were a millionaire drawing regularly on his bank account.

INSTRUCTIONS

Recipe called for unsalted butter or rendered chicken fat. I changed
it to oil or chicken fat.  Kasha Stuffing: In saucepan, melt fat over
medium heat; cook onions  fo 5 minutes. Add kasha; cook for 5 minutes.
Stir in stock, apricots,  salt and pepper; bring to boil. Reduce heat
to low cover and cook for  5 minutes. Remove from heat; let stand for 1
hour.  Remove giblets and neck from chicken. Rinse under cold water;
pat dry  inside and out. Loosely stuff neck and body cavities with some
of the  stuffing; place remaining stuffing in casserole dish and set
aside.  Fold neck skin over stuffing and skewer to back. Lift wings and
twist  under back. Place, breast side up, on rack in roasting pan.  In
small saucepan, heat together honey, fat and salt over low heat  until
fat is melted, stirring to blend well. Brush about 1/3 cup all  over
chicken to coat. Roast in 325'F oven for 2-1/4 hours, brushing
occasionally with all but 1 tbsp of the remaining honey mixture.  Add
casserole dish to oven. Brush chicken with reserved honey mixture;
sprinkle all over with sesame seeds. Roast for 30 minutes or until
meat thermometer inserted in thickest part of thigh registers 185'F.
Transfer to cutting board; tent with foil and let stand for 10  minutes
before carving. Makes 6 servings. PER SERVING: about 610cal,  49g pro,
