ROAST CHICKEN WITH CORNBREAD STUFFING
It is hard to deny that when it comes to roasting a chicken what some of us most look forward to is the stuffing. Instead of opting for the traditional stuffing, we've kicked it up a notch with this sweet and savoury cornbread style stuffing. After it's finished roasting the result is a creamy chewy texture that is a delicious and creative treat.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Season the inside and the outside of the bird with salt and pepper. Let it rest on the counter for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, assemble the stuffing. In a large bowl combine together the cornbread, onion, sage, pumpkin seeds, raisins, garlic, jalapeno and chicken stock. Season with salt and pepper.
- Stuff both of the chicken's cavities with the stuffing and make sure not to overstuff.
- Truss the bird using white kitchen string, and arrange it breast side up in a roasting pan. Brush the bird all over with the melted butter. Transfer to the rack in the middle of the oven. Roast for 30 minutes.
- Baste the chicken and reduce oven temperature to 350°F (175°C) and continue to roast for 2 hours or until a meat thermometer registers 180°F (82°C). Continue to baste the chicken every 20-30 minutes to help crisp the skin.
- Remove the chicken from the oven and allow it to rest for 10 minutes. Remove the stuffing from the bird before carving.

YANKEE GIRL'S SOUTHERN ROAST CHICKEN WITH CORNBREAD STUFFING
This recipe was inspired by a Recipezaar thread where I requested Zaar Southerners to suggest their favorite Southern recipes. Talk about Southern hospitality -- what a response! I learned a lot -- I think I'm part Southerner now! About the stuffing: It does not call for broth, as the cornbread is on the moist side, even after toasting. I like a more crumbly stuffing, and find that the chicken exudes plenty of moisture to make it just right.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Rinse chicken, remove excess fat from around the cavity and pat dry.
- Rub inside and outside of chicken with one teaspoon Old Bay seasoning and set aside.
- Spread corn bread pieces in a single layer on a baking sheet and toast in a 350 degree oven for about 15 minutes, or until they dry out a bit not much longer than that.
- Combine onion, celery, fresh herbs, pepper, olive oil and 1 teaspoon of the Old Bay seasoning in a mixing bowl.
- When the cornbread crumbs are toasted enough, dump the hot bread into the celery onion mixture and combine.
- Place the chicken in the bottom of a small roasting pan that has a cover.
- Stuff the cavity and the sides of the chicken with the stuffing you need to separate the skin a bit from the sides to get the stuffing in next to the leg/thigh pieces also stuff some into the neck cavity.
- Tie the legs together to hold the stuffing in with kitchen twine.
- Drizzle the chicken with oil, sprinkle with salt and a little more Old Bay if you like.
- Cover the pan and roast at 350 for about 1 and 1/2 hours, then uncover, insert a thermometer close to the leg/thigh joint without touching the bone- you're looking for it to read 180 degrees- it will be very close at this point.
- Roast a little longer uncovered until chicken is nicely browned and the thermometer reads 180 degrees.
- Allow the chicken to rest about 10 to 15 minutes before carving- this step keeps it juicy.
- Enjoy.

CELERY HERB STUFFING AND SAVORY CHICKEN
I taught my children this recipe by singing along to Scarborough Fair by Simon and Garfunkel: Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme, great herb stuffing seasonings. If you can get savory from the Atlantic provinces to green your chicken; it would be the best. My father was a Newfoundlander and swore by their savory.
