Boil the Chicken
Boil 3 liters of water. Add 1 tablespoon of sliced ginger, 2 scallion stalks, and 2 crushed shallots to the boiling water. Then, season with 2 teaspoons of seasoning powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and stir until the seasonings are dissolved.
When the water simmers, add the chicken. When adding the chicken to the water, turn it over so that both sides of the chicken are evenly cooked. Boil the chicken for 7 minutes until cooked through, then turn off the heat, cover, and let it sit for 25 minutes. Remove the chicken and submerge it in ice water to make the skin crispy and the meat firm.
How to Choose Fresh and Delicious Chicken
- Good chicken has shiny skin with a natural pink color, or thin skin with a light yellow color while the breast, wings, and back are slightly darker yellow.
- Choose chickens without any strange odor, and no bruising or discoloration on the skin.
- Do not buy chicken that is soft and not firm. If there are strange red spots on the chicken, do not buy it.
How to Prepare Clean and Odorless Chicken
- There are many ways to remove the chicken odor. First, you need to completely remove the chicken feathers, especially the fine hairs and oil glands at the tail.
- You can also use a mixture of vinegar and salt in a 2:1 ratio, rub it all over the chicken, and rinse with clean water.
- Alternatively, you can use lime or ginger, which also effectively removes the chicken odor.
The [dish] offers tender and flavorful chicken with delicious, savory rice. It’s not too difficult to make such an attractive chicken rice dish, is it? Dien May XANH hopes you will make this dish and enjoy it with your family. Good luck!
