Salt-baked chicken, a Han Hakka specialty dish, is a Cantonese-Hakka dish. It is a famous Hakka dish in Guangdong and one of the local Hakka signature dishes in Guangdong. It is popular in Shenzhen, Huizhou and other places in Guangdong. It has become a classic dish well-known at home and abroad, especially in overseas areas where Guangdong overseas Chinese are concentrated. A few days ago, I saw a friend on WeChat and said that the salt-baked chicken is delicious, so I tried making it at home using the Heile casserole I just bought from Feng. The taste was so delicious, it was really the salt-baked chicken on the tip of my tongue!
