Chicken hotpot

Hotpot chicken originated in Cangzhou City, Hebei Province. There is a hotpot chicken shop just a few steps away from Cangzhou. Its popularity is not comparable to that of other hot pots. Almost all ordinary families in Cangzhou cook it, which is an essential dish for friends and relatives to get together. Sichuan Cangzhou spicy hotpot chicken is the main representative, and now it has spread to Beijing, Tianjin and even all over the country. When eating, it is accompanied by old vinegar, garlic paste, sesame sauce and other accessories, with rich flavor and endless aftertaste.

working methods

The raw material of this technology is 35-45 days old white striped chicken, which is processed by pickling, frying, stewing and so on with pepper, pepper, bean paste, salt, sugar, nutmeg, angelica dahurica and mugwort leaves. Finally, you can eat it directly, or you can add a small bag of soup and sell it as a commodity, so that you can experience the delicacy of the restaurant at the family table.

In fact, hot pot chicken is an innovative combination of red-cooked chicken and spicy hot pot in Sichuan cuisine, with chicken as the main material and great autonomy.

Cut the slaughtered rooster into pieces and soak it in salt/cooking wine/pepper for 20 minutes. Vegetable raw materials (such as lettuce/carrot/water bamboo, etc.). ) is also cut into pieces or strips.

When the pot is cooked in oil until it is five-cooked, put the ginger and onion into the wok, stir-fry the chicken pieces, add a proper amount of hot pot red soup (if it is cooked at home, stir-fry half a packet of hot pot bottom material), add vegetable raw materials and wild peppers, and cook over low heat. (If time is tight, use a pressure cooker)

When cooked to 90% maturity, add the cooked red soup (if not, add bone soup/chicken soup, or even add boiled water, add salt/monosodium glutamate/soy sauce/white sugar to taste), serve, serve with flavor dishes, and cook over high fire until the chicken is cooked and soft. (you can also serve it completely cooked and soft, and you don't need to order it. )

Eat chicken and vegetables first, and then cook other vegetables on the fire, which is quite characteristic of hot pot.
