The time of the year passes so quickly, the blink of an eye is the end of the year, about to usher in a new year, the Chinese tradition, that is, when the Chinese New Year's Eve, make a rich Chinese New Year's Eve meal, the family reunion, happy to welcome the arrival of the New Year. Everyone hopes that their new year will be prosperous and auspicious, so when Chinese New Year's Eve meal, there will be a chicken on the table of each family, representing "Ji".
This year I plan to make a roast chicken at home, which has always been quite hot, the whole one does not have to be cut, nor fried and grilled, and when it is Chinese New Year's Eve, it is served on the table, and it tastes more delicious than it bought. I made it once today, and everyone loves to eat it. I would like to share the practice with you.
First of all, we must buy a three-yellow chicken, we have a market here, three yellow chickens are about nine pieces of five one pounds, and one chicken is about three pounds. It cost less than $30. Buying a ready-made roast chicken costs about 50 yuan, so I make it at home, which is really good and cheap, and I have suddenly become a small expert in saving money.
【To prepare the pressure cooker roast chicken】
First, remove the internal organs of the three yellow chickens and clean them, especially the lymph nodes, the neck area, and the lymph nodes under the skin, which should be removed cleanly. The roast chicken bought from outside, pay attention to a little, now will also remove the lymph, but there are some not exquisite, have not been removed. This kind of buy home must be cleaned up by yourself, can not eat.
Second, soak in a handful of fungus and dried shiitake mushrooms. These two are the ingredients, and they can not be eaten at all, just as delicious. However, after adding shiitake mushrooms, the chicken has the aroma of shiitake mushrooms, which can be tasted.
Third, prepare the shallots, ginger, two spoonfuls of soy sauce, a spoonful of cooking wine, plus Orleans spices. Spread evenly on the body of the three yellow chickens, and the stomach is also smeared with sauce, stuffed with green onions and ginger, shiitake mushrooms, and fungus. Then put the three yellow chickens in a plastic bag, pour the remaining sauce into it, marinate for a day, turn the chicken over halfway through, and let the chicken be evenly marinated on all sides of the sauce.
Fourth, spread the shallots under the pressure cooker, or the shallots of the green onion, slices of ginger, and the shallots and ginger used for marinating chickens to the bottom of the pot, then put the chicken on top and pour in the sauce left over from the marinated chicken.
Fifth, without adding water, directly start heating, after the pressure cooker is steamed, use the minimum heat, 20 minutes, the roast chicken is ready. No need to bake or fry, isn't it very simple? This is also a practice that I saw was very popular, and I tried it myself, and it was really good, more fragrant than what I bought.
When marinating, it is mainly made of Orleans seasoning, but because children eat a little spicy, they add soy sauce and reduce the use of Orleans ingredients. Adults can eat only with Orleans seasoning, if there is not much sauce when baking, add two small spoons of water to the bottom of the pot, not too much, do not go over the bottom of the onion ginger.
Don't like to eat onions, don't put onions, if I eat myself, I don't put onions, I don't know why, I feel fishy when I put onions, but my family eats onions, so I still put them. The practice of food is very varied, so be sure to make appropriate adjustments according to your taste.
In our hometown New Year, there will be a whole roast chicken Chinese New Year's Eve rice, learn this method, when making Chinese New Year's Eve rice, you can not buy roast chicken, you can do it in the home pressure cooker.
