Honey and Garlic Chicken

© "So Easy, So Delicious"
 
5 to 7 lb chicken or capon
1/4 C water
2 to 3 tsp paprika
1/2 C honey
1/4 C ketchup
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 C soy sauce
2 T brown sugar

Place chicken in a roasting pan. Pour water into pan. Sprinkle chicken with paprika. Roast, uncovered, at 350° for 30 minutes. While chicken cooks, combine remaining ingredients in a saucepan and heat until well blended. Pour this sauce over the chicken and then cover the pan with foil. Roast for 45 minutes, basting occasionally. Uncover and roast for 15 additional minutes, or until chicken reaches desired doneness, basting once or twice.

Hint: For an easy meal, bake potatoes or rice in the oven while the chicken is cooking.
