Remove the oil sac, lungs, and throat from the chicken. Rinse thoroughly, trim away any excess feathers and yellow skin, and drain off the water.

Step 2

Marinate the chicken in the marinade for 60 minutes, then remove and rinse the chicken skin with clean water.

Step 3

Pour boiling water over the chicken skin so that the skin tightens all over and turns a pale yellow color.

Pour the boiled skin glaze liquid over the chicken, then hook the chicken through both wings. Hang the chicken in a breezy spot to dry.

Step 5

Hang the dried chicken in the oven and roast over medium-high heat for 30 minutes. Remove and set aside to cool.
