Tips:

-The homemade chili sauce should be taken out with a clean, oil-free and water-free spoon; this can prevent the chili from spoiling, and it is recommended to eat it within 3 days after being sealed with plastic wrap and storing it in the refrigerator.
-Homemade chili sauce will be delicious with Hainanese chicken rice, and it can also be used as a dipping sauce for hot pot.
-Choose a chicken that is not too big. I use black-footed chicken; it's not too big, so it's just cooked through in 25 minutes.
-The oranges used in the chili sauce can be replaced with kumquat or lime juice.
-This kind of long red pepper will not taste very spicy. If you like to eat very spicy, you can add 1-2 millet peppers and smash it together.
