Zesty Pineapple Orange Glazed Chicken

21⁄2-3 pound fryer chicken	GLAZE
1 Tablespoon olive oil	1 (6 ounce) can pineapple juice
Salt and pepper, to taste	1⁄2 cup pure maple syrup
	3 Tablespoons Dijon mustard
	3 Tablespoons soy sauce
	Zest of 1 orange
	Juice of 1 orange
	1⁄2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), cut into small cubes

Make the glaze by combining pineapple juice, maple syrup, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, and orange zest and juice in a small saucepan. Bring to boil then drop to a simmer. Pour half of the glaze into a small bowl to glaze the chicken during to cooking process. Reduce the rest of the glaze left in the saucepan by half over medium low heat. Once it is reduced, drop butter in one piece at a time, swirling to incorporate fully before adding the next. Once all butter is in, season with salt and pepper.

Remove gizzards from chicken and set aside for another use. Rinse and pat dry with paper towel. Place the chicken on a roasting rack in a roasting pan and rub it with olive oil. Salt and pepper the chicken, including the cavity. Adjust oven rack to position 2.

In Dacor Guide, select Fryer Chicken. Place in the oven and press start. Insert meat probe into the thigh and enter 180˚ as the internal temperature. Set timer for 30 minutes. Remove chicken from oven and brush about 1⁄3 of the pineapple orange mixture on the chicken. Place chicken back in the oven. Baste chicken with pineapple orange glaze two to three times total (about every 10-15 minutes) during the cooking process.
