EASY ROAST CHICKEN



I have never roasted a chicken before.

Recently, when I was glancing through rasamalaysia.com.,
I was attracted to the Chinese Roast Chicken.

I decided to try my hands on 1/2 a chicken 
instead of the whole bird!

The result?
Soft & juicy roast chicken!
I only had some breast meat left over for sandwiches the next day!

Roasting a chicken is not difficult after all.
To encourage you to try this recipe
I call it
Easy Roast Chicken


Easy Roast Chicken
1/2 chicken, free ranged

Marinate: mix together in a plastic bag:
2 slices ginger
2 garlic, lightly smashed
1.5 Tbsp light soya sauce
2 tsp honey
1/2 tsp 5 spice powder
1/4 tsp cooking wine
salt & pepper to taste

Skin Coating: mix together
1 tsp cooking oil
1 tsp honey

1. clean chicken & pat dry with paper towel
2. put the chicken into the plastic bag with marinate
3. shake to coat the chicken & leave in fridge overnight, turning once in awhile
4. when ready to roast, remove from fridge & rest chicken, skin side up, 
    to air dry for 30min or more
5. when skin is dry, roast in preheated oven 200'C for 30-35min
6. take out the chicken & apply skin coating on the skin
7. bake for another 10-15min until golden brown
8. leave to cool before chopping

Note:
If the wings get too dark, tent with aluminium foil
