In hot summer, I like to cook some simple meals. After listening to my husband's suggestion, I decided to have a long-lost boiled chicken. White-cut chicken, also known as "white-cut chicken", is very simple and the most common chicken dish in Cantonese cuisine. It is a kind of soaked chicken, which is simple to make, just cooked, not rotten, without ingredients, authentic, smooth and smooth, suitable for both large and small banquets, and is favored by diners, and most people are always tired of eating it.

Steps of white-cut chicken

1 garlic cut into powder, shallots and coriander washed and cut into powder.

Put it in a bowl and heat it in a microwave oven for 30 seconds, then add a little sugar, add a proper amount of scallop sauce/Meguiar's sauce, and drop one or two drops of sesame oil and mix well.

Treatment of chickens: Beijing prohibits the sale of live poultry, so the chickens bought back have been slaughtered and preliminarily treated, such as plucking and disemboweling. Just wash the chicken and cut off its claws.

4 Add water, aniseed, star anise, onion, ginger, garlic cloves and cooking wine to the pot.

Put the chicken in when the water is boiling. It is best not to let the water pass through the whole chicken.

Immediately after boiling water, take out the chicken and soak it in ice boiling water for a while, which will make the chicken skin more compact, the water quality in the chicken will not be easily lost, and the cooked chicken will be more smooth and tender.

Then put the chicken back in the pot, cover the pot and stew for 3 minutes.

Turn off the fire and stew for 45 minutes after the water boils, so that the chicken will become tender and smooth.

When the time comes to 9,45 minutes, just boil the chicken in water. Don't worry at this time. Another trick is to take the chicken out and soak it in iced boiling water for 10 minute, so that the chicken skin shrinks when it meets cold water, which is not only smooth, but also tight and elastic like in a restaurant.

10 finally take out the chicken and drain it. Cut the whole chicken into small pieces and put it on a plate. You can add seasoning when eating. The taste is very distinctive and the aftertaste is endless.

1 1 not only saves time and trouble, saves fuel, but also has beautiful appearance, yellow skin and white meat, fat and tender, smooth and delicious skin. Boiled chicken is very popular with the public.
