Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Empty contents of stuffing box, both the bread crumb and seasoning envelopes, into a medium bowl.
- Add hot water and butter; stir to mix.
- Add chopped water chestnuts, onion and poultry seasoning, mix thoroughly and set aside.
- Check inside the chicken for giblets, remove and set aside.
- Rinse chicken inside and out with cold running water.
- Dry thoroughly inside and out with paper towel.
- Sprinkle salt and fresh ground pepper inside the cavity and all over the outside.
- Place chicken in a roaster.
- Loosely pack the stuffing mix into the main cavity and any left into the neck cavity folding the skin over it.
- If necessary secure the neck skin with a pick.
- Take a length of kitchen string and tie the ends of the legs as close together as possible.
- Rub the butter all over the outside of the chicken making sure to cover the whole outside surface.
- Take two lengths of aluminum foil, place one piece over the chicken lengthwise, take the other piece and place it sideways over the first piece.
- Tuck the foil tightly to the chicken so it is touching the bottom of the roaster but not under the bird.
- If the bird is not completely covered (except for the underside) Use a third piece to finish covering.
- Place the roaster on the middle rack of the oven and roast at 400f degrees for 15 minutes.
- Reduce the heat after 15 minutes to 350f degrees and roast for approximately 2 hours.
- At about 2 hours, carefully lift the aluminum foil and poke the chicken with a fork, if the juice runs clear, remove the foil and roast a further 30 minutes to brown the skin to golden.
- If the juice is not yet clear, roast a little longer and check again.
- Once the chicken is well browned, remove to platter, cover with foil and let rest.
- In the meantime, if you wish to make giblet gravy, take the giblets (and neck if it's there), place in a saucepan, cover with water, add salt and pepper and a little poultry seasoning if you wish, bring to boil, reduce heat and simmer for at least an hour.
- Remove to strainer, reserving liquid.
- Chop the giblets and pick any meat off neck bones, add to a blender and add the liquid.
- Blend to liquefy level, add 3 or 4 tablespoons flour or corn starch and blend to mix well.
- Pour off as much fat as possible from the roaster, take a whisk and move up any bits and pieces of stuffing/chicken stuck to the bottom, remove any large pieces of skin, add the giblet mix from the blender, whisk around; place in 450°F to 500°F degree oven until bubbly, about 10 minutes; add a small amount of hot water if necessary if it is too thick until it is the consistancy you want, cook another 5 minutes.
- (We like ours very thick) Whisk and pour into gravy boat and serve hot with the roast chicken.
- Gravy can also be made without the giblets, just whisk up the brown bits in the roaster and add 1 cup of hot water and make a slurry of cold water and either flour or corn starch, add the slurry and whisk, cook the same as above adding a little more water if necessary.

HARRY T'S STUFFED CHICKEN
Steps:
- For the cornbread stuffing: Heat the andouille in a skillet or saute pan over low heat until the fat is rendered (it will separate and become liquid in the pan). Drain the liquid and set it aside in a small bowl to cool (you will use this to bind the stuffing). Set aside the andouille. In a separate saute pan, add the butter, onion, bell pepper, celery, garlic and green onion and sweat over medium heat until the color begins to come out, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Crumble the cornbread into a mixing bowl. Add the andouille and crumble it together with the cornbread until large crumbs form. Add the reserved rendered fat and the onion mixture and gently fold them into the cornbread mixture. Set aside.
- For the chicken: Grease a baking sheet with the oil. Grill the chicken in a grill pan or on an outdoor grill on medium-high heat until cooked throughout, about 8 minutes per side.
- Preheat the broiler to high. Scoop enough of the cornbread stuffing to cover the breast and press it down onto the top of the chicken. Place the chicken on the prepared baking sheet and broil until the stuffing browns, 4 to 5 minutes.
- For the smoked Gouda sauce: Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook to just release the flavor, no more than 2 minutes. Add the heavy cream and bring to a boil, then add the Gouda and Parmesan and stir to thicken the sauce. Once all the ingredients are melded together, remove from the heat and pour the sauce over the top of the broiled chicken and cornbread stuffing.
Tips:
- Choose the right chicken: Choose a whole chicken that is about 3-4 pounds, with a plump breast and firm skin. This will ensure that there is enough space for the stuffing and that the chicken cooks evenly.
- Prepare the stuffing: Make sure the stuffing is well-seasoned and moist. Add some herbs, spices, and vegetables to the stuffing to give it flavor. You can also add some bread crumbs or rice to help bind the stuffing together.
- Stuff the chicken: Stuff the chicken loosely with the stuffing. Do not pack the stuffing too tightly, as this will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly. You should be able to fit about 3 cups of stuffing inside the chicken.
- Roast the chicken: Place the stuffed chicken in a roasting pan and roast it in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit. You can also baste the chicken with butter or oil during the roasting process to help keep it moist.
- Let the chicken rest: Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for about 10 minutes before carving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Stuffed chicken is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to use up leftover chicken or to create a special meal for a special occasion. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make a stuffed chicken that is sure to impress your family and friends.
