Among all four delicacies, Wenchang chicken may be the most well-known dish. Not only popular in Hainan, it has evolved to become the signature Hainanese chicken rice in Southeast Asia, thanks to the overseas Hainan population. Free range chickens are carefully chosen to cook the best Wenchang chicken dish, which is enjoyed by dipping meat pieces in a mixture of spices including chopped ginger, garlic, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and freshly squeezed calamansi fruit.
