This Whole Roasted Ginger Soy Chicken is delicious! Perfect for any day of the week or for that essential Sunday Roast Chicken. This chicken makes wonderful pan juices from the soy, ginger and garlic so serving this with just a white rice would be perfect. If you want to add a green vegetable lemon green beans would be an additional side dish that would work well with this dish.

Loaded with ginger, soy sauce Worcestershire, lime and garlic this chicken is so flavorful. It is garlicy, salty from the soy, with that lemony ginger flavor. I love ginger! Actually I love all of these ingredients.
If you have any leftovers this would be a great addition to an Asian rice bowl, a noodle bowl or even a crispy eggroll! Yum! I definitely need to try that.

I served this with Rice Pilaf, but as I mentioned before just a white rice would be good, a creamy risotto, or even some Asian noodles like Udon or Soba. Even some stewed potatoes would be delicious.
