Cold Pepper Chicken
Overview
Choose a small rooster weighing 500 to 700 grams, with tender meat and thin skin. Paired with brightly colored, spicy and refreshing Hangzhou pepper and Jinyang green Sichuan peppercorns soaked in Sichuan peppercorn oil for 2 to 3 days. It's not that complicated, but it's a delicious appetizer with fresh colors and rich Sichuan flavor. After slowly cooking this dish, not only my own taste buds were opened, but also the love and praise from my family.
