1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine |
1 cup oats |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
Directions:
1. Prepare Oat Stuffing: Melt butter in med. 2. skillet; cook 1 lg minced onion on medium heat, stirring frequently, until light brown. 3. Stir oats and spices; cook until oats are golden brown, stirring frequently, approx 3-4 min. 4. For Chicken: Fill wishbone area of chicken with stuffing. 5. Fasten neck skin to back with skewer. 6. Fold wings across back; let tips touch. 7. Fill main cavity lightly with stuffing. 8. (This will expand while cooking, so don't stuff too much in!) Skewer/tie drumsticks to tail. 9.
