Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 roasting chicken (about 4 1/2 pounds)
Salt to taste
2 Tablespoons dark soy sauce
1/4 Cup ketchup
1/4 Cup fresh lime juice
1 1/2 Tablespoons honey
2 1/2 Tablespoons grated fresh ginger
1 Tablespoon minced garlic
Grated zest of 1 lime
1 Cup chicken stock or canned broth

Rinse the chicken well, inside and out, and pat dry with
paper towels. Rub inside and out with salt.
In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, ketchup, lime juice,
honey, ginger, garlic and lime zest. Stir well to mix.
Place the chicken in a bowl and brush with some of the
sauce, then refrigerate for 6 hours or overnight. Cover the
unused sauce and refrigerate.

Bring the chicken to room temperature. Preheat oven to 425
degrees. Place the chicken in a roasting pan and brush with
some of the remaining sauce. Roast for 15 minutes.

Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees; pour the stock or
broth into the pan, and roast the chicken until done, about
1 hour, brushing once or twice with the sauce. (If all the
sauce is not used up, pour the rest into the pan.)Remove
the chicken to a carving board, and let rest, covered with
aluminum foil for 10 minutes. Skim the fat off pan juices,
and reheat the juices, if necessary.
Cut the chicken into serving pieces; arrange on a serving
platter, and pour the juices over chicken.
