How to Make Roast Chicken Chinese Style
- In a large glass bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup hoisin sauce, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 tablespoons sherry, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, and 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard.
- Add the whole chicken (approximately 3-4 pounds) to the bowl. Turn to coat thoroughly, ensuring the marinade gets inside the cavity. Marinate for at least 2 hours in the refrigerator, turning occasionally.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Remove chicken from marinade (reserve the marinade). Place the chicken in a roasting pan.
- Roast for 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 165°F (74°C).
- Remove chicken from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before carving.
- Meanwhile, heat the reserved marinade in a small saucepan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
- Carve the chicken into serving pieces and pour the heated marinade over the top.
- Garnish with 2 tablespoons chopped scallions and serve immediately.
