Submitted for RSC#9. Original instructions forgot to include the five spice powder with the other ingredients in the blender. I also forgot to include that I always use low sodium soy sauce. These changes have been updated. You can also use any chicken pieces you desire including breasts, thighs, wings, etc. For more pronounced flavour, marinade the chicken overnight in a ziploc bag and then proceed with step 3. This recipe can also be made in a crockpot.

SERVES 6 -8 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

3/4 cup soy sauce
1 white onion, quartered
1/4-1/3 cup brown sugar
1 orange, juice of
1/2 teaspoon orange zest (optional)
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 teaspoon ginger
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon five-spice powder
1 whole chicken, cut up
2-3 teaspoons cornstarch, if desired for sauce

Directions

1
Combine first 9 ingredients into a blender and pulse until blended smooth.
2
Pour mixture over chicken in a 9X13 inch baking pan.
3
Bake at 350 degrees for 35-45 minutes or until juices run clear and chicken is done.
4
Serves 6-8. The sauce is wonderful over rice.
5
If desired, remove chicken from baking pan and pour the sauce into a medium saucepan and add 2-3 tsp cornstarch. Cook over medium heat until slightly thickened. Pour over chicken and serve.
6
To make in crockpot, cook on high for 4-5 hours or low for 7-8 hours.

I prepared this in a crock pot at work, for the pot luck supper on Xmas eve, using all skinless thighs. Everyone liked it! At home I will use a bit more orange rind, and Mrs. Dash too, for my personal taste. thank you!

this was very good, it was slightly salty which may be due to the soy sauce, so maybe I will cut down on that. Ohterwise was very good. Iserved with noodles and it went down very well with kids and husband. Thank you

Great Flavors in this marinade. Very easy recipe to prepare. It took less then 5 minutes to throw the first 8 ingredients in the food processor and pour into a giant zip lock with the chicken. It marinated for 8 hours. I love quick and easy! Good Luck Chef!

This was my first recipe with five spice powder. Interesting flavors, but delicious. I used thighs and I do believe I will cut back on the sauce a bit next time as I had quite a lot of it. The chicken was very tender.
