MAMA PRUDHOMME'S STICKY ROASTED CHICKEN
Printed in a newspaper about 25 years ago, we have treasured this recipe. In fact, my most effective threat to set things right in the family was threatening to throw out this recipe! It was attributed to Paul P.'s mother. It is borderline hot, fall-apart luscious, crispy skin with a killer gravy. I have made slight changes, such as using a 6# baking hen in place of a 3# chicken, but have adjusted the recipe accordingly. We like hot, so I use half again the quantity of spices but that is at your discretion. So here it is for your enjoyment, never to be lost or God forbid, thrown out!
