Kasha Stuffing: In saucepan, melt fat over medium heat; cook onions fo 5

pepper; bring to boil. Reduce heat to low cover and cook for 5 minutes.

inside and out. Loosely stuff neck and body cavities with some of the
stuffing; place remaining stuffing in casserole dish and set aside. Fold
neck skin over stuffing and skewer to back. Lift wings and twist under
back. Place, breast side up, on rack in roasting pan.

In small saucepan, heat together honey, fat and salt over low heat until
fat is melted, stirring to blend well. Brush about 1/3 cup all over chicken
to coat. Roast in 325'F oven for 2-1/4 hours, brushing occasionally with
all but 1 tbsp of the remaining honey mixture.

Add casserole dish to oven. Brush chicken with reserved honey mixture;
sprinkle all over with sesame seeds. Roast for 30 minutes or until meat
thermometer inserted in thickest part of thigh registers 185'F. Transfer to
