Three Cups Chicken

Three Cups Chicken

1.

2. To cook three cups of chicken, you can choose whole three yellow chickens or chicken thighs. Some people also like to use chicken wings. Like this time I chose a whole chicken, so I need to chop the chicken into square or long pieces. Then wash the chicken nuggets with clean water and set aside

3. Cut the ginger into thin large ginger slices, the amount can be a little more, I roughly calculated it, I used about 10 slices to make a chicken

4. Wash the chives, cut into scallions, peel the garlic, and just need about 10 pieces. Cut the red pepper into red pepper rings. Nine-story tower wash

5. Many people cook the chicken with three cups of oil, even after dipping it in cornstarch and then oiling it. According to the practice of authentic three-cup chicken, this is all wrong. For authentic three-cup chicken, the chicken does not need to be oiled. Just blanch the chicken first. Remember, chicken should be pan under cold water. The first purpose of blanching is to remove the blood from the chicken, and the second is to remove the birdy smell of the chicken as much as possible. The chicken is not deep-fried or fried with flour. What you need is the chicken oil flavor that overflows directly after the chicken skin comes in contact with the sesame oil during cooking

6. Put a little vegetable oil and sesame oil in the wok and add some vegetable oil and sesame oil. When the oil temperature has not risen, add the ginger slices, stir fry with a frying spoon until fragrant. You can stir it for a while, even the edges of the ginger slices are slightly light. Not afraid of being mushy

7. Next, add the garlic meat, red pepper rings, and chives belly in turn, and continue to stir fry for a fragrance

8. Now pour the blanched chicken nuggets into the pot and stir fry on high heat

9. We are going to season the chicken in the wok. Put a cup of Taiwanese rice wine, a cup of soy sauce and a combination of light soy sauce in order. It is said that there is a cup of it. In fact, if we use the ordinary porcelain spoon for soup to do the measurement, 10 tablespoons of rice wine and 5 tablespoons of soy sauce are enough. Two spoons of light soy sauce, three spoons of soy sauce

10. Remember, the whole process of cooking three cups of chicken is without water. Continue to add sugar to taste. The amount of sugar is 2.5 tablespoons, then stir-fry evenly and collect the juice on high heat. Press the lid when collecting the juice. At this time, you can put the clay pot on another gas stove and start to heat it up

11. After about 4 minutes, lift up the lid, ha, the overflowing soup from the rice wine and chicken is almost dry, stir fry a few times, because with the assistance of sugar, you will find that the color of the chicken is bright red, which is very beautiful It's tempting, and it's already scented

12. Now, turn off the fire in the clay pot, pour all the ingredients in the wok into the clay pot, quickly pour three teaspoons of sesame oil, after hearing a thorn, put it into the nine-story tower, and close the lid of the clay pot, continue Simmer it for 20 seconds, and serve

13. When you lift the lid of the clay pot, do you know how the people sitting around the table will react? By the way, apart from the praise, I think everyone can't help but eat their chopsticks. My experience is that if you make this dish at a family gathering, you must save yourself two pieces of chicken before serving the clay pot. Otherwise, hum, you can figure it out.
