1Beer-Can Roasted Chicken with Fig-Jam Pan Sauce
Courtesy of Martha StewartIf juiciness is your goal, pop open a frosty one, set your chicken on top of the can, and then leave the pair alone in the privacy of your oven. The stout makes the meat incredibly moist and gives it a subtle sweet-and-malty flavor. A little leftover beer blended with a couple of tablespoons of fig jam transforms the pan drippings into a rich, tasty gravy.
