According to legend, in a small town in the southern United States in the18th century, a family's kitchen caught fire at that time, and several chickens raised in the kitchen failed to escape the disaster. Poultry was a valuable thing at that time. When the owner was sorting out the ruins, he found the burnt chicken. He was very sad, so he picked it up to see if it could still be eaten. The whole family tasted it. But everyone unexpectedly found that the roast chicken was delicious, and many seasoning bottles in the kitchen were found next to the chicken.

Orleans is a city in central France, where the forest vegetation area is vast and the animal husbandry is developed. Since the Louis dynasty, there has been a tradition of eating roast chicken among the people. Among them, the chicken in Orleans is rich in texture, and there are some favorite feeds for livestock in the local farmland. Clear springs and grass plants in the mountains have played a great role in raising livestock. Later, the roast chicken there became famous all over the world, and later became a necessary feast for Christmas.
