Xunyi Steamed Chicken with Flour
It is said that during the Qin Dynasty, when Emperor Qin Shi Huang passed away and urgently summoned his eldest son, Prince Fu Su, who was guarding the frontier, Fu Su returned to Xianyang via the Qin Direct Road and passed through Xunyi. Famished, he was served a dish by local farmers: a chicken was butchered, cut into small pieces, mixed with flour and prickly ash leaves, layered on a base of dough, and steamed over low heat. The result was a dish with a bright yellow hue, rich yet not greasy, tender and delicious.
