This dish is named after its place of origin, Dezhou in Shan- dong Province. According to Dezhou City Annals and Dezhou History, the Han family first be- gan to braise boneless chicken with several spices in 1616, and the recipe was passed down from one generation to the next. When QingEmperor Qianlong (1711 - 1799) traveled to Dezhou, he ordered the Han family to make braised chicken and praised it as "a won- der of all cuisines." Dezhou Braised Chicken thereafter became a royal tribute.
