Xinjiang saute spicy chicken, also known as Shawan saute spicy chicken, is a famous dish in Xinjiang, which originated in the 198s. Its main ingredients are chicken nuggets and potato nuggets, Sichuan vermicelli, and belts. Bright-colored, smooth and spicy chicken and soft glutinous and sweet potatoes, which are spicy with fragrance and coarse with fine, are the best products on the table.
Hand-grabbed meat is a usage of mutton from Kazak people, so it is named because it is eaten by hand. The method is simple, that is, chop the mutton with bones into pieces, cook it in clear water, sprinkle minced onion, salt on it after taking it out, and then pour some boiled soup. This kind of meat tastes pure and tender, and its oil is not greasy. It can be eaten as well as soup. It is not only a favorite food for locals, but also a delicious food for guests from afar. Especially the lamb cooked with lamb, which is called "lamb meat", is more delicious.
If you travel to Xinjiang, it would be a pity if you didn't go to eat grilled fish in Gobi once. The grilled fish there tastes different from the grilled fish we ate outside. The most authentic grilled fish comes from Bachu, Xinjiang. In Uyghur Dolans, Bachu, Xinjiang, they like to eat fish, and the cooking method is quite unique. The famous Populus euphratica culture in southern Xinjiang gave birth to Dao Lang catering culture, which is the most beautiful business card in Xinjiang catering industry.
At sunset, Uyghur Dolans lit a bonfire on the banks of the Yerqiang River to make delicious grilled fish. During the baking process, fresh willow branches will secrete willow juice, which makes the fish more delicious, which is not available in other places. Zhang Qian, an envoy of the Han Dynasty to the Western Regions, passed by here. He once grilled fish with local people, and found it particularly delicious, so he brought the technology back to the Central Plains. Unfortunately, there are no Populus euphratica and red willow branches in the Central Plains, and the unique flavor of grilled fish in Bachu, Xinjiang can't be baked.
