5 spice chicken recipe
This chicken recipe was made by me and a chinese friend many years ago .It has become a favorite of mine , its superb on noodles and rice.Ihave made some alterations to suit my own taste and i think that it is better than before.Although i used a whole chicken , leg quarters can also be used .
