Stewed Chicken with SpicesStewed chicken with spicy flavor, known as 'Burnt Chicken', is a dish primarily made with chicken, typically using male chicken cut into pieces and braised together with chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, ginger, garlic, and other seasonings to make the meat flavorful and tender.
