There are three main cooking methods for Hainan Wenchang chicken: white-cut, boiled in coconut milk and charcoal grilled.

First of all, white-cut Wenchang chicken is the most classic way to make it.

Choose 1.5-2kg Wenchang chicken, clean it, blanch it in boiling water for three to five seconds, take it out, then put it into boiling water and cook it over low heat for about 20 minutes.

This time can be adjusted appropriately according to the size of the chicken.

After turning off the heat, let the chicken soak in hot water for 40 minutes to achieve tender meat and smooth skin.

Then take out the chicken and soak it in cold boiling water for 10 minutes, then take it out and drain it, cut it into pieces and put it on a plate.

Serve with sauce made from minced garlic, shredded ginger, chili and other seasonings.

Secondly, Wenchang chicken cooked in coconut milk also has a unique flavor.

Cut the prepared Wenchang chicken into pieces and fry in coconut oil until both sides are golden brown.

Then add coconut milk, lemongrass, galangal, green lemon peel and other ingredients, simmer over low heat for 30 minutes until the chicken is fragrant.

The Wenchang chicken made this way has a rich coconut milk aroma and a mellow taste.

Finally, charcoal-grilled Wenchang chicken is a more original method.

Coat the whole Wenchang chicken with a marinade made of honey, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, ginger and garlic, and marinate it overnight.

The next day, put the chicken on an iron skewer and roast it slowly over a charcoal fire until cooked through.

This Wenchang chicken has crispy skin and tender meat, full of aroma.

The delicious taste of Hainan Wenchang chicken is inseparable from its unique breed and raising methods.
