Narrative:

After normal landing on a well prepared runway with good braking action; we exited on to a taxiway that had standing water over ice. We could see the taxiway markings and the ice was not readily visible. Once we exited the well prepared runway surface to the taxiway; the steering and braking ability was 'nil' and the jet began to slowly slide sideways. Reverse thrust was applied to counter the condition and to prevent the jet from leaving the taxiway. Advised tower of the condition of the taxiway and was able to taxi to the gate. Both pilots completed a walk around post-flight and did not observe any damage to the aircraft.
