Ingredients 

2 teaspoons dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 (3-1/2 pounds) Gold'n Plump® Whole Chicken
1/2 cup purchased mango chutney
4 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch slices
2 yellow onions, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch slices
1 cup canned low-fat, low-sodium chicken broth

Instructions 

Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly coat large roasting pan (about 16”x 12”x 3”) with cooking spray.

Combine thyme, salt, and pepper in small bowl.

Coat chicken with thyme mixture.

Place chicken, breast-side up, in prepared pan. Insert a meat thermometer into the meaty part of thigh, making sure thermometer does not touch the bone.

Roast for 30 minutes.

Spoon chutney over chicken. Arrange sweet potatoes and onions around chicken. Pour broth over vegetables.

Continue to roast, basting vegetables occasionally with pan juices, for about 45 minutes. The chicken is done when thermometer registers 180°F. The juices should run clear with no hint of pink in meat. (The guideline is approximately 21 to 24 minutes per pound.)

Remove chicken from oven and let stand for about 10 minutes before carving.

Accompany chicken servings with potatoes and onions. Drizzle each serving with about 3 tablespoons of pan juices.

Tips 

Serve with apple-cranberry salad with creamy maple dressing and crusty sourdough or herb bread, which is delicious dipped in the pan juices.
