Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the oven rack in the lower third of the oven.
Clean and pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Remove any giblets from the cavity if present.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, oyster sauce, honey, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, Chinese five-spice powder, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Using a brush or your hands, rub the marinade all over the chicken, including the cavity and under the skin if possible.
Lightly oil the Bundt pan with cooking oil to prevent sticking. Place the chicken on the center column of the Bundt pan, ensuring it is seated upright and stable.
Place the Bundt pan on a rimmed baking sheet to catch any drippings during cooking.
Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for approximately 90 minutes, or until the internal temperature in the thickest part of the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C). Baste the chicken with its juices from the bottom of the pan every 30 minutes for extra flavor and moisture.
Once cooked, carefully remove the chicken from the Bundt pan and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving.
Garnish with chopped green onions and fresh cilantro before serving. Serve with steamed jasmine rice or your favorite side dishes.
