Stew chicken soup, don't blanch anymore, do these 2 points, the chicken is very smooth and tender, and the chicken soup is especially fragrant and not fishy
Chicken soup can be drunk in the summer, because the chicken itself is not very high in calories, and compared with beef and mutton, chicken is more suitable for summer. Recently, it has been raining and the temperature is relatively low, so I feel that my body is not very comfortable, so I want to drink a pot of chicken soup.
Chicken soup contains a lot of nutrients, high calcium, high protein, low fat, especially for the weak, as well as the elderly and children, it is undoubtedly a very good tonic. Therefore, I recommend everyone to drink it in the summer, at least 1 or 2 times a month.
When it comes to stewing chicken soup, the method is very simple, everyone will, but there is still a gap between what can be done and what is done well. When stewing chicken soup, many people like to blanch, in fact, this step is wrong, if you want the chicken to be smooth and tender, not firewood and no fishy smell, and the chicken soup is fragrant and not fishy, you must do these 2 points.
【Stewed chicken soup】
Ingredients: chicken, ginger slices, green onions, wolfberry, red dates, salt, cooking oil
1. There were chickens near our house before, but now we don't let all the stalls move away, and now it's hard to buy a chicken, moving from the westernmost to the easternmost end. Fortunately, I know the boss, and every time I go, I will deal with it carefully and cleanly.
2. After the purchased chicken is chopped into pieces, it is directly placed in water, no need to clean, and it is directly soaked in water for 30 minutes. After soaking, of course, if you have time, you can soak it for 1 hour, which is better, and rinse it several times after soaking.
3. Soaking the chicken is the first point to do well, during the soaking process, the blood water in it is soaked out, the fishy smell can be reduced a lot, and soaking in water can also make the chicken more tender and will not be firewood. Next, cut the ginger slices and green onions, then rinse the red dates and wolfberries, and prepare to stew.
4. Pour a little cooking oil into the pot, then add the chicken and start stir-frying, after stir-frying until the surface is colored, pour the green onion and ginger into it, stir-fry a few times, and fry the fragrance.
5. Boiling water must be added, which is more delicious than stewing in cold water, and the taste of the chicken is more tender, no firewood, and no fishy smell, which is the second point that needs to be done. Add boiling water, add the dates, cover the lid, and start simmering.
6. After boiling over high heat, change to low heat and continue to stew, simmer for at least 1 hour, put the wolfberries in after the time, and then season with salt, stir well with a spoon after adding it, our chicken soup is ready, turn off the heat and start drinking, fragrant and nutritious.
