Prepare the Chicken: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Rinse the chicken and pat it dry. Rub with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the garlic and orange slices inside the cavity.
Make the Orange Glaze: In a small saucepan, combine the orange juice, honey, soy sauce, butter, orange zest, and ground ginger (if using). Heat until the butter melts and the ingredients are well combined. Simmer for 3-5 minutes.
Apply the Glaze: Place the chicken in a roasting pan and pour half of the glaze over it.
Roast the Chicken: Roast in the preheated oven for 60-90 minutes, basting with the remaining glaze halfway through cooking.
Let the Chicken Rest: Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving.
Serve: Carve the chicken and serve with roasted orange slices and your choice of sides.
