Chicken Braised
Overview
I have loved chicken since I was a child. At that time, chickens were all raised at home, and my father would kill one only once a month to satisfy our cravings. Even though it was the most ordinary chicken stewed with vermicelli, the taste was enough to last for days. When I first came to Beijing, I was a little bit unaccustomed to the food here. I still couldn't tolerate the sweet and spicy taste. Over time, my taste has changed. Especially in the past six months, I suddenly like dishes with strong flavors and can't get tired of eating them. Like this chicken pot, I can't stop after one bite!
