Characterized by a short neck and slender legs, the chickens bred and raised in Wenchang in Hainan’s North-East are renowned across China for their thin skin and lean, exceptionally flavorful meat that packs a umami punch and unique natural sweetness. The most authentic way to enjoy this delicacy is poached and served warm with rice and a selection of sauces. Bursting with flavor that is unabashedly its own, Wenchang chicken is an essential part of any Hainan culinary adventure.
