Recently, chestnuts have been on the market. The chestnuts sold in supermarkets are all very big. Although they are not as sweet as small chestnuts, they are quite enjoyable. I have always heard that chestnuts are used for cooking, and they are often braised with chicken nuggets. Without chestnuts, I especially want to make this dish. The chicken nuggets are delicious, and the chestnuts are soft and waxy. It's a good meal. "

Braised Chicken Nuggets with Chestnuts

1. Cut the chicken legs into pieces, cook in a pot under cold water, and remove them.

2. Pour oil into the casserole, add rock sugar, and wait for the rock sugar to melt and turn it into a caramel color.

3. Pour the chicken nuggets and stir fry for color, add pepper, star anise, green onion, ginger, garlic, and dried chili.

4. Add water, salt and light soy sauce to the casserole, transfer to the heating plate, select the braising program, cover the pot and simmer for half an hour.

5. After the chestnuts are roasted, peel off their shells, put them in the chicken pieces, and continue to simmer for half an hour.

6. When the soup is almost dry, turn off the program, put the green pepper slices in, add oyster sauce and mix well.

Tips:
1. Because the chicken nuggets are easy to cook, a procedure is 2 and a half hours, so it doesn't take that long.
2. The small way to shell chestnuts is to make a cut on the surface with a knife, put it in an air fryer or oven and bake for 15 minutes at 220 degrees, so that the cut will collapse and the shell can be easily removed.
