3 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 tsp. five-spice powder
1 tsp. sesame oil

3. Spoon the marinade in the bowl into a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer, and
simmer marinade until lightly thickened. Brush the chicken with the hot marinade.
4. Bake the chicken 30 to 35 minutes, or until cooked through.

and serve with steamed rice.
