Chinese Roast Chicken with Gravy
We loved this. I changed the recipe based on some of the other reviews and stuffed the chicken with chopped onion, garlic, celery and some grated fresh ginger. Basted the chicken with the sesame oil and then with some low sodium soy sauce. I kept basting it throughout the cooking time (30 mins at 400 and then 1hr 30 mins at 350). I only used about 1/3 cup soy sauce, since we do not like salty food. I added 1/2 cup chicken stock and 1/2 cup orange juice to the roasting pan at the beginning of the cooking time. When the chicken was cooked, I carved it and placed it in a seperate serving dish and removed the stuffing from the carcass and added it to the sauce in the pan. I did not make the gravy with the cornstarch since the sauce was thick enough and really tasty. I served it with brown basmati rice and it was truly wonderful.
