Can brine chicken be steamed?
You can steam it in an electric rice cooker.
It is very simple to cook salted chicken with rice cooker, just repeat the cooking function twice. When you buy Haitian salted chicken powder, there are instructions on how to do it on the back. I used to make salted chicken wings with old Haitian brine chicken powder, which was delicious. Now that there is a new set meal, it feels good to roast the whole chicken this time. Roast chicken usually uses green onions or shallots, but I prefer onions, which tastes better. This is everyone's preference, there is no difference between good and bad.

A fresh chicken (about 2 kg), a bag of Haitian salted chicken powder 30 g, a piece of ginger, half an onion (or an onion), 1 tablespoon of cooking oil.

1. Wash and drain chicken, heart, liver and gizzard;
2. Apply the marinated chicken powder inside and outside the chicken body, including chicken heart, chicken liver and chicken gizzard, and marinate for 30 minutes;
3. Coat the bottom and periphery of the rice cooker with edible oil, and slice ginger and onion at the bottom of the rice cooker;

5. Open the lid of the rice cooker, turn the chicken over, cover it, and repeat the cooking function again until it beats again.
6. Take out the roasted chicken, cool it at room temperature, put it in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes (this will make the chicken skin smooth and smooth, but I didn't hang it for that long because I was in a hurry to eat it, but I also thought it was delicious), take out the bones and tear the meat, put it on a plate, sprinkle some chopped green onion and coriander on it (because there is no coriander at home, so I didn't put it on it) and eat it. If the taste is not good enough, you can sprinkle some salt.
Matters needing attention
Cooking salted chicken with rice cooker does not need to put too much oil, because the chicken itself will produce a lot of oil during steaming, so this salted chicken is not greasy after cooking;
I like the piece of chicken steamed brown in an electric cooker best, which is especially delicious.
comment
1, Chai chicken is more elastic. If you only use half of it, you should choose the side with the sternum to avoid the chicken breast from shrinking when heated and the taste is dry.
2. If you like to eat chicken skin, in order to avoid greasy, you can freeze the chicken before tearing it. If the skin is torn off, let the chicken cool down.
