I believe that friends in Guangdong know that chicken is indispensable for various important occasions in Guangdong, a chicken can have many kinds of methods, in addition to the well-known white cut chicken, there are soy sauce chicken, red onion steamed chicken, gelatin chicken pot, Cantonese braised chicken, salt baked chicken and so on. Today, Aunt Cui wants to share a dish of saltwater chicken, the taste is good, the method is simpler than the white cut chicken, very suitable for home cooking, let's take a look!
【Salt water chicken】
Ingredients to prepare: chicken
Prepare the seasonings: ginger, green onion, cooking oil, table salt
Step 1: Clean the chicken, you can use the whole chicken, if you think it is too much, you can also use half a chicken, drain the water and put it in a bowl. It is best to use native chickens here, and the tender chickens that have not laid eggs are the best.
Step 2: Cut the green onion into sections, slice the ginger, pour it into the bowl containing the chicken, put more salt, more salt than usual, and then pour in the appropriate amount of cooking oil, start to coat the surface of the chicken and start marinating. Marinate for about 2 hours, or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate to marinate.
Step 3: Boil water in the steamer, put in the marinated chicken, steam on high heat for 20 to 30 minutes, if you are afraid that the chicken is not very bad, you can extend the time appropriately.
Step 4: After steaming, open the lid of the pot, at this time you can smell the strong smell of chicken. When the chicken is slightly cooler, you can take the whole chicken apart, cut it directly with a knife, and place it on a plate.
Step 5: The steamed chicken will steam out the soup, pour the soup on the chicken, so that the brine chicken is ready!
The well-made brine chicken will be a little salty, but Aunt Cui feels that it is not particularly salty, because the material is simple, only salt is used to flavor, and the name of the brine chicken is also confirmed. If you have a friend who likes to eat spicy, you can pour a layer of chili oil on it after making it, and the taste will be better.
