Chicken
1 (3 1/2- to 4-pound) whole frying chicken
Glaze
12 cup peach preserves
2 tablespoons Land O Lakes® Butter
2 tablespoons bourbon or orange juice
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
12 teaspoon dry mustard
12 teaspoon salt
18 teaspoon pepper
STEP 1
Heat oven to 375°F. Place chicken, breast-side up, on rack in roasting pan.
STEP 2
Combine all glaze ingredients in 1-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until butter is melted. Reserve 1/4 cup.
STEP 3
Spoon remaining glaze over chicken. Bake, basting occasionally, 45-60 minutes or until chicken is golden brown. (If necessary, add water to basting juices to prevent burning.)
STEP 4
Loosely cover chicken with aluminum foil. Continue baking, basting occasionally, 30-45 minutes or until chicken reaches 165°F and juices run clear when pierced with a fork.
STEP 5
Skim fat from pan juices. Combine pan juices with reserved glaze in 1-quart saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat 1-2 minutes or until mixture comes to a boil. Serve with chicken.
