This recipe incorporates pure maple syrup with star anise, candied ginger, cinnamon and lemon. Virtually any rice dish (basmati, rice and peas, rice with raisins and nuts, etc.) and steamed seasonal vegetables will make a wonderful and festive meal.

You create a sweet and tangy sauce by reducing pure maple syrup to the consistency of honey as cinnamon sticks, star anise, chopped candied ginger, lemon juice and zest infuse their exotic flavors into the liquid. You will want to strain the 'wood' and ginger and lemon zest after reducing the sauce. Charred candied ginger may be too bitter-hot for most diners. You really only need the the reduced, flavor-infused syrup for this dish.

The chicken roasts for one hour, then you baste the bird and return it to the oven for 20 minutes. Then baste the chicken very well with the sauce and roast another 20 minutes.

Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before carving.
