After it was stewed over charcoal fire, he fed it to his mother. Unexpectedly, the aroma was so fragrant that it attracted an official chef next door. He took a piece and tasted it and found it delicious. Later, the official chef continued to improve the cooking method, cooking chicken with a cup of sesame oil, a cup of soy sauce, and a cup of rice wine, and named it "Three Cup Chicken".
