Chinese dishes
Wok-prepared food items
Chinese dishes are foods prepared in the culinary traditions of China, encompassing regional styles from Cantonese to Sichuan to Hunan.
The term typically refers to prepared meals rather than the plates they're served on: We ordered several Chinese dishes to share.
In American usage, it often means the Americanized versions found at takeout restaurants—General Tso's chicken, lo mein, fried rice.
