Chestnut Roast Chicken

1. Prepare fresh chicken, many people choose chicken drumsticks. Personally recommend this dish to use fresh meat to improve the flavor.

2. There are shelled chestnuts bought in the market. Soak them in boiling water for 5-8 minutes to easily remove the film inside the chestnuts.

3. Cut the chicken into small pieces, and drain the chicken in a pot of boiling water.

4. Add oil, add sliced ginger, star anise, garlic, green onion, and chili pepper to fragrant until slightly yellow, then add chicken and stir fry.

5. Stir-fry until the chicken is slightly dry (the water in the chicken meat), add the bean paste, and stir fry for 1-2 minutes until the chicken is colored.

6. Submerge in water to one-ninth of the chicken, add chestnuts and light soy sauce. 5. Cover the pot and simmer until chicken and chestnuts are cooked (recommended to use a pressure cooker, the taste of the pressure cooker is more sauce-flavored). After the chicken is cooked, add pepper and sesame oil! The starch thickens. (Appropriately add a red pepper ring to make the eyes brighter) Then a home-style roasted chestnut chicken is successfully plated (you can sprinkle the green onions on the surface to make the eyes more matching)
