Preheat oven to 375u00b0F. To make stuffing, put butter and garlic in a bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds at 50% until butter melts. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Season to taste.

Wash chicken and pat dry. Spoon stuffing into cavity. To truss, put chicken on its back. Pull skin over neck and secure by folding wing tips back over skin. Run string around wings and underneath to cross over back. Turn chicken and bring string up to tie legs together, keeping them close to body and securing stuffing.
