Place a pot containing 3 quarts of water over high heat. When the water comes to a boil, lower the chicken into the water (it should be completely immersed). Cook the chicken for about a total of 10 minutes. (It will take about 5 minutes for the water to return to the boil, and the chicken should cook for an additional 4 or 5 minutes at a gentle boil.) Drain the chicken, and place it on a rack, uncovered, in the refrigerator for 5 to 6 hours, or overnight. The skin should be somewhat dry at this point. (The drier the skin, the crisper it will be after cooking.) At cooking time, combine the honey, soy sauce and Tabasco sauce in a small bowl, and brush the mixture on all sides of the chicken. Place the chicken, breast side up, on a wire rack in a shallow roasting pan, and roast it in a 425-degree oven for 20 minutes, or until nicely browned on top. Turn the chicken over (breast side down), return it to the rack, and place the pan back in the oven for 30 minutes. Turn the chicken over again, and cook it, breast side up, for an additional 10 minutes, for a total cooking time of 1 hour. Let the chicken stand at room temperature for 10 minutes before carving and serving

Combine first 6 ingredients in a medium bowl; stir well. Reserve 1 cup hoisin sauce mixture; set aside. Cut chicken diagonally across the grain into thin slices. Add chicken to the remaining sauce mixture in bowl and stir well. Cover and marinate in refrigerator up to 8 hours, stirring occasionally. Remove chicken from bowl; discard marinade. Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; add 1 1/2 teaspoons oil and place over medium-high heat until hot. Add half of chicken; cook 5 minutes or until done. Remove chicken and set aside. Repeat procedure with remaining oil and chicken. Warm tortillas. Spread 2 tablespoons reserved hoisin sauce mixture down the center of each tortilla. Arrange one-eighth of chicken slices and 2 tablespoons green onions down the center of each tortilla; roll up.

In a small bowl, mix together the mustard, sugar, soy sauce, sesame oil, chili peppers (if using) and vinegar. Blend thoroughly and set aside. Coat chicken pieces in cornstarch.

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Sprinkle the chicken inside and out with the salt and pepper and fold the wings akimbo to position them closer to the body. Place the chicken on its side in an oven-safe skillet, preferably cast-iron. Place the chicken in the skillet in the oven and cook for 20 minutes, then turn the chicken over and cook another 20 minutes. (By cooking the chicken on its sides, the juices stay in the breast and, since only the back is exposed, the chicken does not need constant basting.) Finally, turn the chicken onto its back, baste it with the cooking juices and continue to cook 10 minutes. It should be golden in color. When the chicken is cooked, cut it into pieces and serve, with the drippings on the side.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Mix butter, garlic, thyme, rosemary, lemon zest, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper together in a bowl. Loosen skin on chicken breast; rub butter mixture between skin and breast meat. Press on the skin to distribute evenly. Rub oil, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper all over; place lemon halves inside cavity. Set in a baking pan. Roast in the preheated oven, basting after 30 minutes, until chicken is no longer pink, 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 rest before carving, about 15 minutes.

Pare the zest from the orange in thick strips then mix with the soy sauce, sherry and fivespice powder in a large food bag. Bash the garlic cloves and ginger with the back of a knife to bruise them, then add to the bag and give everything a good mix. Put the chicken in the bag, rub the marinade all over the flesh then leave to marinate in the fridge for at least 3 hrs, overnight ideally. Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Remove the chicken from the marinade (keep it for later). Halve the orange and put both halves inside the cavity along with the bashed ginger and garlic from the marinade. With the chicken sitting on a rack in the sink, pour a kettleful of boiling water over it. Pat completely dry with kitchen paper. Set the chicken on its wire rack over a roasting tray and roast for 50 mins per kg or until the juices run clear when the thigh is pierced with a skewer. Strain the marinade into a pan along with the honey. Bring up to the boil then simmer for a couple of mins. Just before serving, turn the oven up as high as it will go. Brush some of the marinade all over the chicken. Return to the oven and cook until the chicken is crisp and browned. This will only take a couple of mins. Leave to rest, uncovered, for 5 mins. Serve with the remaining warmed marinade, some plain rice and bok choi or spinach stirfried with a little garlic and oyster sauce.
