Five Spice Roasted Chicken

As it was a crazy early January and chinese new year being a bit earlier this year, I didn’t have time to plan a proper chinese new year dinner. So I just made a simple dinner for 2 at home and wanted to make a roast chicken but with asian flavors.

Oven Baked Spicy Korean Cauliflower
