Gui ji

Ghost chicken is a salad from the Yunnan province, China, consisting of shredded chicken, herbs such as sand ginger, basil, coriander, Thai bird's eye chili, sawtooth, and cardamom, and lime juice. The chicken is the local black-skinned chicken which is boiled and then shredded. The meat and the skin are mixed with herbs and lime juice. Traditionally, the chicken feet and the head are also used in the salad. Also, the use of aromatics shows the influence of Southeast Asian flavors, as the province borders Myanmar, Laos, and Vietnam.
