Roast Chicken with Warm Prune and Fennel Bread Salad

Think of this dish as the inside-out answer to turkey and stuffing. Instead of filling the bird’s cavity with bread, here the bread is toasted like croutons and mixed into a salad with Sunsweet prunes, fresh fennel, and parsley. Prunes are used in two ways: underneath the chicken skin to give it a deep color as it roasts as well as soaked in a little vinegar to brighten the salad.
