Chicken is a very nutritious ingredient, and we often eat meat in our daily lives. Since the price of pork has increased, I have become very fond of chicken legs. I feel that chicken legs are versatile, nutritious and delicious.
There are many ways to make chicken. Usually we make chicken soup. Chicken soup is very nourishing, but drinking it often will make people feel greasy. Moreover, the chicken soup is light and there is no appetite after eating too much. Except for stewing chicken soup. In addition, we can also make a very delicious dish, which is pineapple chicken. The ingredients are very simple, mainly pineapple and chicken. The pineapple chicken is rich and fragrant, and tastes sweet and sour. It is an appetizer and will be eaten as soon as it is served. Eat a lot.
Chicken leg meat is tender and not easy to burn. A simple stir-fry will make it soft and flavorful. In addition to stewing potatoes, you can also make mushroom and chicken claypot rice, chicken drumstick rice, braised chicken, etc. A meal that the whole family will love. What I’m making today is a delicious sweet and sour pineapple chicken. The taste is very fresh, the nutrition is sufficient, and each chicken is smoother than the other.
Pineapple Chicken
Ingredients needed to prepare: 1 pineapple, 2 chicken legs, and 1 large piece of ginger.
The first step of the specific method is to prepare the above ingredients, then clean the fresh chicken legs you bought, and then use kitchen scissors to cut off the chicken bones and skin. Because I don’t like to eat chicken skin, I took off all the chicken skin. It is more oily, so if you like it, keep it;
The second step is to wash the cut chicken legs again and wash them thoroughly. Cut everything into bite-sized pieces and rinse again. Put it into a large bowl, add ginger, 1 tablespoon light soy sauce, 2 tablespoons cooking wine, 1 tablespoon oyster sauce, a little salt, and appropriate amount of pepper, mix well, marinate for more than 20 minutes and set aside. If you want a darker color, remember to add dark soy sauce. ;
The third step is to prepare the pineapple. Cut off the stem of the pineapple, score a line on it with a sharp knife, and then slowly remove the pulp. You can use pineapple to make a bowl here. It will taste more delicious, so just cut it in half and cut out the pulp inside one by one.
The fourth step is to put all the pineapple pulp taken out into the bowl. If it is too big, you can make it smaller. Pour water into the wok and bring to a boil, then turn off the heat, pour in the marinated chicken legs, blanch them for about 1 minute, until they completely change color, then take them out;
Step 5: Remove only the chicken legs , no need for the shredded ginger in it. Blanching is not only to further remove the fishy smell of the meat, but also to remove the floating color on the meat, so as not to affect the color of the pineapple when it is fried with the pineapple later.
Step 6: After cleaning the pot again, heat it up, pour an appropriate amount of oil, add 3 rock sugars and stir-fry until the sugar color turns out (you won’t be able to fry the sugar-colored ones, just stir-fry them until they melt). Add the diced chicken and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add pineapple and pineapple juice and continue to stir-fry evenly, add an appropriate amount of salt to taste, and cook for a while until the chicken is fragrant;
The delicious pineapple chicken is now ready. The sweet and sour taste is very refreshing. , it’s a must-have when served with rice. If you want to eat pineapple chicken rice, add the rice directly and stir-fry evenly. After frying, sprinkle a handful of cooked black sesame seeds for decoration, and that’s it;
