HOISIN-GLAZED ROAST CHICKEN
Hoisin sauce is a popular Chinese condiment made from fermented soybean paste and seasonings such as garlic, chile peppers and sesame. Here, it's combined with other pantry staples like soy sauce, rice wine and Sichuan peppercorns and used to marinate and then baste roast chicken, dialing up the savory richness of the meat and infusing it with a wonderfully sweet yet salty flavor.

Steps:
- Heat the peanut oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the star anise and peppercorns; cook, stirring, until toasted, about 10 seconds. Add the cilantro, scallions and garlic and cook 30 seconds. Add the soy sauce mixture and simmer over medium heat until slightly reduced, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and let cool, then add the chicken and toss. Cover and refrigerate 4 hours.
- Transfer the chicken to a rack set in a roasting pan (reserve the marinade). Refrigerate the chicken, uncovered, about 3 hours to dry out the skin.
- Position a rack in the upper third of the oven; preheat to 400 degrees F. Pour 1/4 inch of water and the reserved marinade into the roasting pan. Roast the chicken 20 minutes. Baste with the pan juices, then reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and continue roasting until the skin is glazed and a thermometer inserted into a breast registers 160 degrees F, 20 to 25 more minutes. Transfer the chicken (on the rack) to a board. Pour the pan juices into a skillet; simmer over medium-high heat until reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Drizzle over the chicken.
- Whisk the soy sauce, rice wine, hoisin sauce and honey in a bowl; set aside.
