INGREDIENTS:

  • 1, 4- to 5-pound chicken, innards removed
  • 1 Fuji red apple, cut into thin wedges
  • 1 celery stalk, chopped
  • Sage leaves
  • 2 ounces butter, at room temperature
  • salt and pepper to taste

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Preheat an oven to 425°F.
  2. Wash and dry the chicken well, inside and out. Place the chicken in a large roasting pan. Season the cavity well with salt and pepper. Stuff with as much apple wedges, celery, and sage leaves that will fit. Arrange the remaining around the chicken.
