Roast Chicken with Cumin, Honey, and Orange
How to Make It
Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°.
Step 2
Remove and discard giblets from the chicken. Rinse chicken with cold water; pat dry. Trim excess fat. Starting at neck cavity, loosen skin from breast and drumsticks by inserting fingers, gently pushing between skin and meat.
Step 3
Combine honey and remaining ingredients. Rub honey mixture under loosened skin and over breast and drumsticks. Lift wing tips up and over back; tuck under chicken.
Step 4
Place chicken, breast side up, on a foil-lined broiler pan. Pierce skin several times with a meat fork. Insert meat thermometer into meaty part of thigh, making sure not to touch bone. Bake at 400° for 30 minutes; cover loosely with foil. Bake an additional 40 minutes or until the thermometer registers 180°. Let stand for 10 minutes. Discard skin.

This was okay. It was easy (though a little messy) and I ended up with some nice, juicy chicken. But I was expecting to love the honey-orange-cumin rub, and I didn't. The orange overwhelmed all the other flavors. I might try again with less orange zest and more garlic.
