How to Make a Fast Five-Spice Roast Chicken

A Chinese chicken dish that’s as good, if not better, than take-out

Chinese food at home that’s as good as the real thing? You bet! So put down that take-out menu and whip up this spiced roast chicken for dinner tonight.

This recipe couldn’t be easier either. Once you’ve mixed your ingredients together, simply coat your chicken pieces thoroughly and cook in a preheated 375º F (190°C) oven for about 20 minutes or until the chicken reaches internal temperature of 165°F  (74°C), basting a few times with remaining sauce.

Sprinkle with chopped green onions and serve with some steamed rice and soy-drizzled bok choy for a complete meal. Eating light? Skip the rice!
