Three Tours Immortal Chicken

Three Tours Immortal Chicken

　　Legend has it that during the Northern Song Dynasty, the great literary scholar Su Shi and his two sons once tasted this dish while visiting the Three Tours Cave together. They found the flavor exquisite and felt refreshed and carefree after eating it, enjoying themselves more than immortals. Hence, the dish came to be known as Three Tours Immortal Chicken. It is made by pouring sesame oil over a whole chicken and cooking it with over ten different seasonings. The chicken has a rich soy-red color, is fragrant, tender, soft, and retains its original flavor, making it quite unique. (Yichang)
