Ingredients

• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
• 1 (3 pound) whole chicken, cut in half
• 0.75 cup soy sauce
• 0.75 cup granulated sugar

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Pat chicken halves dry with paper towels. Place chicken cut-side down in a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 3

Combine sugar, soy sauce, grated ginger, and garlic in a medium mixing bowl; mix well and pour mixture over chicken. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours.

Step 4

Roast chicken in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Let cool slightly, then cut into smaller pieces to serve.
