Stuff body cavity with orange quarters, celery and peppercorns. Close cavity with skewers. Tie legs and tail together. Fold wing tips under body. Place chicken, breast-side up, on a rack in a roasting pan. Pour water into roasting pan.
Roast chicken for 30 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 325° and roast 1 1/2 to 2 hours longer or until done, basting occasionally.
