Guiyang Grilled Chicken Skin

Guiyang Grilled Chicken Skin

　　Guiyang grilled chicken skin is a popular street snack in Guiyang. It is made by cutting chicken skin into strips, threading them onto wire skewers, and grilling them repeatedly. Making a single skewer of grilled chicken skin involves over ten steps. Next to the grill are bowls and plates filled with green oil and seasonings. As the skin is grilled, it is constantly turned, dipped in the seasonings from the bowls, and brushed with oil. From time to time, the aroma of sizzling oil fills the air, and the delicious smell wafts through the area. The oil that drips onto the charcoal bursts into small flames, crackling loudly, creating a spectacular sight. Each of us ate several skewers — the skin was fragrant, crispy, and melted in the mouth without being tough or chewy. The texture was incredibly satisfying, and we still think about it to this day.
