Just playing around in the kitchen again, making up things as I go along. I really love meat cooked with fruit these days. Thank you to my young niece, the self acclaimed, future Chef CC, for all her assistance in helping to create, prepare and cook this new dish. Read more She makes me very nervous when she insists on chopping things, but she is getting better at her knife skills. Her mother would have a heart attack if she knew. Ahh but that's what makes being an Aunt so much fun! See less

How to make it
- - Pat dry the chicken and season the cavity w/ S&P
- - Stuff the chicken with the fruit chunks, and some rosemary
- - Season the outside of the chicken w/ S&P
- - Place some rosemary on top of the chicken
- - Cover the chicken and rosemary with fruit slices, put any extra fruit and rosemary around chicken in the broth
- - Bake according to the weight of the chicken
- - Baste w/ the pan juices as needed. Inject the meat with pan juices if you have one, halfway through cooking.
- - Remove from pan, cover w/ foil to keep warm
- - Strain the juices into a pot and reduce to a consistency you would enjoy. I cooked my sauce just a bit to give it some body, but not like a gravy. I did not add any flour/starches
- - Remove the fruit and rosemary from the inside and outside of the chicken
- - Carve slices and serve the sauce on the side or over the chicken
- I served the chicken with wild rice and broccolini...AKA Baby Broccoli...my favorite veggie.
