  • 2 ts Soy sauce
  • 1 ts Brown bean sauce
  • 1 -(up to)
  • 2 tb Soy sauce

 Directions

1. Soak dried tangerine peel.

2. Wipe chicken with a damp cloth. Then dry thoroughly with paper toweling;

containing several inches of water. Roast 10 minutes. Then reduce heat to
300 degrees and continue roasting until done (about 30 minutes more).

letting liquids drain into bowl. Cut bird in bite-size pieces. Strain
liquids and reheat; then pour over chicken and serve. Or serve cold without
sauce.

NOTE: The packaged chicken sold in supermarkets cannot be used for this
dish: the head and neck must be intact. VARIATIONS:

1. For the brown bean sauce, substitute hoisin sauce.

2. In step 6, thicken the reheated sauce with a cornstarch paste.
