GRILLED FIVE-SPICE CHICKEN
The best five-spice chicken I have had in Vietnam was made by a street food vendor in the port town of Hoi An in the central region. The vendor used a spice mix of freshly toasted star anise and turmeric. When she grilled the chicken, the whole neighborhood was perfumed with the most enticing fragrance. This is my version of that dish.

Steps:
- 1. Cut the chicken into 6 pieces and make 1 or 2 slashes in each piece for faster cooking. Trim and discard any excess fat. Pat the chicken dry.
- 2. In a bowl, combine the oil, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, sugar, turmeric, five-spice powder and salt. Stir well to blend. Add the chicken pieces and turn several times to coat them evenly. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
- 3. Start a charcoal grill or preheat a gas grill to moderate heat. (You can also use a broiler.) Thirty minutes before cooking, add the freshly toasted star anise powder to the marinated chicken, turning so the meat is coated evenly.
- 4. Place the chicken, skin side up, on the grill. Cook 10 minutes, then turn over and grill until the chicken is cooked and the juices run clear, another 10 minutes, depending on the thickness. While grilling, move the chicken pieces around so that they cook evenly. Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and serve with the dipping sauce.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
- Marinate the Chicken: The longer you marinate the chicken, the more flavorful it will be. If you can, marinate it for at least 30 minutes, but overnight is even better.
- Use a Grill Pan: If you don't have a grill, you can use a grill pan on the stovetop. Just be sure to preheat the pan over medium-high heat before adding the chicken.
- Cook the Chicken Over Indirect Heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out. If you're using a charcoal grill, push the coals to one side of the grill and cook the chicken over the indirect heat.
- Glaze the Chicken: Brush the chicken with the hoisin-maple glaze during the last few minutes of cooking. This will help to caramelize the chicken and give it a delicious glaze.
- Let the Chicken Rest: Before you serve the chicken, let it rest for a few minutes. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and juicy.
Conclusion:
This five-spice grilled chicken with hoisin-maple glaze is a delicious and easy-to-make recipe that's perfect for a summer cookout. The chicken is marinated in a flavorful mixture of five-spice powder, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger, then grilled to perfection and glazed with a sweet and sticky hoisin-maple glaze. Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as rice, noodles, or vegetables. Enjoy!
