Step 1: Wash the chicken legs and cook them in a cold water pot. After boiling, skim off the floating foam on the surface, then take it out and soak it in cold water.
Tip: Many friends report that chicken skin is easy to rot when cooking chicken legs at home, and it will not rot if it is cooled in cold water. Here, you don't need to scrape the skin of the chicken leg, just put the whole chicken leg into the pot and cook it. After that, the taste was completely soaked in the soup for a long time. Novice friends should pay attention.
Step 2: Put the drumsticks in another pot and pour in hot water, so that the hot water is completely over the drumsticks. Add chopped green onion, ginger slices, star anise, 60g soy sauce,10g soy sauce,10g aged vinegar and 20g oyster sauce, and cook with high fire.
Tip: The role of aged vinegar here is to relieve the greasy feeling of chicken legs, or it has a good taste-enhancing effect. Adding a little old vinegar can make the chicken legs taste better.
Step 3: After the fire boils, skim off the floating foam on the surface, then cover the lid and simmer for about 40 minutes.
Step 4: After the chicken legs are cooked, add the chopped millet spicy, and turn on the fire again to collect the juice. In the process of collecting juice, pay attention to pouring the soup onto the chicken legs with a spoon, so that the chicken legs can absorb more delicious soup, and then turn off the fire after the chicken legs are evenly colored.
Tip: You don't have to wait until the soup is completely dry in this step, but you should pay attention to the changes of the chicken legs so that the chicken legs can completely absorb the delicious soup.
Friends who don't like spicy food can directly open the fire to collect juice at the last step. The cooked braised chicken legs will not go bad in the freezer for 3 days. Friends can make more braised chicken legs at one time and eat enough at one time.
This traditional braised chicken leg is very simple, not only the steps are simple, but also the whole cooking process is not technically difficult. As long as you cook it a few more times, you can remember its practice.
