Chicken Easy Delight - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup raisins
1 tablespoon chopped peanuts
1/2 cup honey
1 teaspoon prepared mustard
1/3 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup butter
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 (3 pound) whole chicken

Preparation

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
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.
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.
