Clean and soak chicken in salt water for one hour...If you don't want to
soak it in salt water, you can use white vinegar in place of the
salt...(Soaking fowl pulls out the blood and reduces the chance of
poisoning.) Rinse chicken well and coat with oil. Place chicken on a
roasting stand. (You can get cheap stands from Lechter's or Walter Drake.)
In a separate bowl, mix 5spice powder with soy sauce. Brush half of the
soy sauce mixture all over the chicken. Bake in a preheated oven at 400
degrees for one hour. Brush remaining soy sauce mixture all over chicken.
Continue baking chicken til done...about another 40 minutes to 1 hour.
Chicken should be crispy and brown. Serve immediately or wait til chicken
is completely cool and cut up for lunches.
