Peking-inspired Roast Chicken step by step

1. Place the Whole Chicken on a cutting board, breast-side-down. From the cavity opening up to the neck, cut down each side of the back bone with a pair of kitchen scissors. Discard the backbone. Sprinkle Salt over both sides..
2. Make the marinade by mixing all ingredients in a large bowl, add chicken and coat both sides with marinade, then let marinate for at least 1 hours, turning over occasionally..
3. Mix all the sauce ingredients in a small bowl. You will brush this sauce over the chicken later. Preheat oven to 200C..
4. Using paper towel, pat dry chicken skins. Place on a wire rack in a roasting pan and pour 500 ml water in the pan to prevent the drippings burning. It make a big difference in the cleaning up..
5. Roast for 30 minutes or until skin is starting to brown. Reduce heat to 180˚C. Keep roasting, brushing the sauce every 10 minutes, for a further 40 minutes or until skin is browned and cooked though..
6. For the best serving suggestion with the 'Savoury Pancakes' and Vegetables, see my 'Mock Peking Duck'..

But this time, I made a Peking inspired braised roast duck (check back soon for that recipe!) for dinner and it was not at all greasy or fatty. I think braising it really helped! I was going to share the recipe for the duck first but have decided to switch things up and share the soup I made the following day first. Prosperous suits delight at the imaginative cooking of Michael Steh, who will stuff a whole roast chicken with foie gras and Armagnac-soaked brioche. The wine list is dotted with legendary, wallet-busting bottles - plus more esoteric fare from, say, the Jura - and the polished staff is the best-dressed for miles.
