Dim Sum style chicken feet, a.k.a. Feng Zhua or Pheonix Claws - a dish that's definitely a bit on the complex side but more than tasty to make up for it.

We do the Dim Sum restaurant-style steaming method for these chicken feet instead of the braising method that's popular online - lengthy steaming ensures tender, fall-off-the-bone chicken while still preserving its puffy skin. There's three sauces that're most common with chicken feet - abalone sauce, black bean sauce, and zijin chili garlic sauce... while all three are popular, we felt the zijin chili garlic variety was perhaps the most 'classic' with that distinctive red-ish color, so that's the direction we went.
As always, here's the detailed written recipe over on /r/cooking:

We're Steph and Chris - a food-obsessed couple that lives in Shenzhen, China. Steph is from Guangzhou and loves cooking food from throughout China - you'll usually be watching her behind the wok.

This channel is all about learning how to cook the same taste that you'd get in China. Our goal for each video is to give you a recipe that would at least get you close to what's made by some of our favorite restaurants here. Because of that, our recipes are no-holds-barred Chinese when it comes to style and ingredients - but feel free to ask for tips about adaptations and sourcing too!
