Spiced Roast Chicken

This is from a book I got at the library last year. Sadly, I don't know the name of it. The recipe is good, and we like it with the "Almond Fruit Float" previously posted. Make sure to prep a few hours early so it has time to sit.

3-4 lb. chicken pieces
1/4 C soy sauce
2 cloves garlicc, crushed
1 t black pepper
1/4 C sugar
2 T vegetable oil
several lettuce leaves

Rince chicken in water and pat dry with paper towels. Mix soy sauce, garlic, pepper, sugar, and oil in a bowl. Thoroughly rub the chidken with the mix. Save unused portion of the mixture for later. Put chicken on a plate and let stand in fridge for 2-4 hours. Put chicken on a roasting pan and roast for 1 1/2 hours at 350. Turn chicken and drizzle with remaining sauce mixture every half hour during roasting. When done, arrange on a bed of lettuce on a serving platter.

We really like this one and hope you do too!
