URGENT SPICE QUESTION PLEASE

I am making some diet coke chicken - the recipe states chinese spice, now in my cupboard I have Mixed Spice & All spice - will either of these do or shall I go & get the chinese spice or 5 spice???
 
I'd go get the five spice personally. Dont use the Allspice anyway :)
 
Opps - sorry posted in the wrong section

Ok Just been to the shops & they don't have either a chinese spice or a 5 spice :(

Now what shall I use???
 
chineese 5 spice is a specific blend so not sure what to suggest. If it helps at all it contains sugar, salt, dried onion, star anise,dried garlic, black pepper, fennel, ginger, cassia, cloves

its a very unique taste.

I have no idea what else you could use :(
 
When I have made diet coke chicken I've only used passata and worcestershire sauce, not used any other spices and was fine.
