Any recipes for Chinese Boiled Chicken where the chicken is boiled first then baked?

I had a recipe for Chinese Chicken where a whole chicken was boiled in a mixture of water,soy sauce, ginger slices, garlic and other spices I cannot remember. After a short boil in the mixture the chicken was transferred to a baking dish and baked in the over until done, The chicken was flavorful and skin was crispy and golden brown. The boiling liquid could be frozen and reused. Anyone have a recipe like this?Any recipes for Chinese Boiled Chicken where the chicken is boiled first then baked?
