Honey creates a beautiful glaze. A complex honey would be wasted here because the mustard would overpower any nuances. Use a simple wildflower type. We love the lemony prune stuffing, but for less fuss you can serve the chicken without it. The roasting time will be the same. WORK TIME: 10 minutes 
TOTAL TIME: 1 hour 45 minutes
 3 Tbsp honey
 3 Tbsp Dijon mustard

    1 Tbsp  soy sauce, preferably Japanese shoyu or tamari

Freshly squeezed juice of ½ lemon 
Grated zest of 1 lemon

    ¼ c  tightly packed pitted prunes, roughly chopped

1½ tsp chopped fresh rosemary or ½ tsp dried rosemary

    1  whole roasting chicken, (4 lb), trimmed of excess fat

1. HEAT oven to 375°F. Line roasting pan with foil.

2. MIX honey, mustard, and soy sauce in medium bowl. If mixture is too thick to drizzle, thin with a little water.

3. COMBINE lemon juice, lemon zest, prunes, rosemary, and 2 tablespoons of the honeymustard mixture in medium bowl. Stuff into chicken cavity.

4. SET chicken on rack in prepared roasting pan. Spoon 2 tablespoons of the honeymustard mixture over chicken. Tent loosely with heavy-duty foil, tucking ends around pan.

5. ROAST chicken 50 minutes. Remove foil. Spoon remaining honey-mustard mixture over chicken, then tent loosely for remainder of roasting. Continue roasting 30 minutes longer or until an instant-read thermometer registers 175°F when inserted into thigh.

6. TRANSFER chicken to platter and let rest 10 minutes. Carve chicken and serve with stuffing.
