During the Three Kingdoms period, Hefei was located in Wutou chuwei, which was a place where soldiers and families had to fight. On the eve of the Battle of Chibi, Cao Cao led hundreds of thousands of troops to this place, and suddenly the head wind attacked, and he was bedridden and sick, so he had to stay on the spot to rest. Seeing that Wu was about to break through, but the dragons were leaderless, everyone in Cao Cao's army was extremely anxious.

One day, a person from Luzhou (present-day Hefei, Anhui) offered a secret recipe, and the chef accompanying the army carefully prepared a medicinal meal according to the secret recipe: chicken as the mainstay, with tianma and other medicinal food.
Cao Cao had not touched the water rice for many days at this time, and strongly supported eating, but he felt that the chicken was delicious, and unconsciously ate most of the chicken, and his body slowly recovered his health.
Since then, Cao Cao has been eating this medicinal diet for a long time, and the stubborn headache has been well alleviated, and this medicinal food has been passed down to the people, named "Cao Cao Chicken".
Hong Kong ship king Bao Yugang traveled to Hefei before his death, and after tasting Cao Cao's chicken, he was greatly appreciated and wrote an inscription that "the name is not worthy of the name, it is a must".
