1 tb Butter or Margarine, melted
1/2 ts Salt
1/2 ts Pepper
1 c Chicken Broth

skin with butter; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place breast side up
on rack in pan. Insert meat thermometer (if not using an instant-read)
into center of a high next to the body (not touching bone). Add chicken
broth to pan. Roast 3 1/2 to 4 hours, basting every 30 minutes with
pan juices, adding more broth or water if the pan seems dry. If the
breast gets too brown, cover loosely with a foil tent. About 2/3
