Dishes

Xiao Jun GanXiao Jun Gan is a traditional dish made primarily from chicken gizzards or duck gizzards, carefully marinated and threaded onto bamboo skewers. It is cooked by grilling or frying until the outside turns golden and crispy while the inside remains tender and juicy. Finally, it can be sprinkled with seasonings to enhance its aroma.
