Apple Glazed Roasted Chicken

Ingredients

• 3-3 1/2 lbs whole chickens
• 1 cup frozen apple juice concentrate
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Directions

1. 1

   Heat oven to 375 degrees; be sure racks are positioned to allow for roasting a whole chicken.

2. 2

   Whisk together apple juice concentrate, corn starch and cinnamon in saucepan over medium heat. Cook until thickened, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.

3. 3

   Spray roasting pan with non-stick spray. Remove skin from breast portion of chicken and top of drumsticks. Place in pan, breast-side up.

4. 4

   Spoon some of the apple-cinnamon glaze over chicken breast and drumsticks, enough for a thin coating **To avoid bacterial contamination, never touch the spoon to the raw chicken; you may wish to use a basting brush to spread the glaze around on the chicken, but never bring this into contact with the remaining glaze.**.

5. 5

   Roast uncovered for 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 hours until cooked through and juices run clear. It is best --but not crucial-- to reapply the glaze every 20 minutes or so.

6. 6

   Heat remaining glaze in microwave and serve alongside chicken.
