  1. Discard giblets and neck of chicken (or save for stock. ) Rinse chicken under cold, running water, and pat dry. Set aside. Coat a large nonstick skillet with Pam; place over med-hi heat until hot. Add yellow squash, zucchini, onion, celery, and garlic, and saute until tender-crisp. Drain. Combine vegetable mixture, breadcrumbs, egg, pecans, salt, and pepper in a med bowl; stir well. Place chicken, breast side up, on a rack in a roasting pan that has been coated with Pam. Stuff lightly with dressing mixture. Truss chicken (or put ball of foil in opening. ) Combine apple juice and honey, stirring well. Brush chicken with half of apple juice-honey mixture. Bake at 350 deg F for 1 1/2- 2 hours or until drumsticks are easy to move and juices run clear, basting occasionally with remaining apple-honey mixture.
