Steps

Done

Marinate Chicken

Clean the chicken by rubbing salt all over chicken. Wash away salt with water and pat dry inside and out.

Cut excess fats and skin to use for cooking rice and making chicken oil.

Combine honey, maltose, five spice powder, ginger, lime juice, water and soy sauce in a bowl. Mix well and bring to a simmer.

Hold the chicken upright with a "S" hook over the simmering marinade. Ladle hot marinade onto the chicken. Repeat till whole chicken is well coated with the marinade and is 20% cooked on the outside. This will tighten chicken skin and have a smooth surface. Chicken should look light brown.

Hang the chicken to air dry for 4 hours.
