Perfect Roast Chicken

This simple recipe is my family's favorite roasted chicken. This is a no fail method of roasting a chicken to perfection!
I use about a 4 to 5 pound  whole chicken for this recipe. 








INGREDIENTS
1/4 cup Mayonnaise
1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup softened butter
2T. Soy sauce
1T. Worcestershire sauce
1T. Mrs. Dash

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Rinse your chicken before roasting, remove giblets.  In a bowl, combine all ingredients with a  spoon until creamy. Using your hands, rub mixture over entire chicken.. Set chicken in a roasting pan breast-side down for first half of cooking time, then flip breast side up .The butter and honey really caramelizes into a beautiful crispy glaze. Roast for about 1 1/2 hour . I use Ina Garten’s tip of slicing the leg and if the juices run clear… it’s done! Let rest for about 15-20 minutes before cutting. ENJOY!
