| Method |
Combine soy sauce, wine, salt and sugar in a bowl. Rub the chicken inside and
outside with this mixture and allow to marinate for 30 minutes, then put in a
steamer and steam for 15 minutes.
In mortar and pestle crush the tangerine peel and star anise as finely as
possible and mix with brown sugar. Take a stout saucepan with a well-fitting
lid, large enough to hold the whole chicken. Line the base of the pan with
heavy duty foil, bringing it a little way up the side of the pan. Sprinkle sugar
and spice mixture evenly over foil, then put a wire rack in pan and put
chicken over it. Cover pan tightly, put over medium heat and when smoke
starts escaping under lid turn heat very low and smoke chicken for 15 minutes
or until done. Slice the flesh off the bones and arrange on a platter, or chop
through bones into small serving pieces. Garnish it with chopped coriander
and serve.
