Steps for Hometown stewed chicken
1
Clean the whole chicken and chop it into small pieces. It would be better to keep the chicken liver and chicken treasures. It is very delicious when stewed in it. Marinate with appropriate amount of soy sauce, cooking wine and salt for half an hour to color and taste.2
Put a little oil in a clean pot, cool the oil, add pepper and star anise to stir-fry until fragrant, then add ginger, garlic, onion, and dried red pepper in turn. Pay attention to the order, because the dried red pepper is easy to stir-fry black, add it later.3
Pour the marinated chicken into the whole body and stir-fry, add a small amount of sugar to color and season, stir-fry on high heat until the chicken pieces are colored and taste, and start adding water to stew. Be careful not to add too much water at once. Adding water multiple times will help make it more delicious.4
Add appropriate amount of salt, cover the pot and simmer. When the water is almost dry, add a little water and continue to simmer until the chicken pieces are cooked. Then add appropriate amount of water and add the potatoes cut into small pieces until the potatoes are cooked.5
Put in the chopped green peppers before taking out of the pan, stir-fry and add MSG to taste. Add green peppers and don't change color until they are cooked well. The green color makes this dish look more appetizing.Hometown stewed chicken Make Tips
Use a whole chicken. This way, you can enjoy both the meat and the bones, which adds a lot of flavor. Remember to marinate the chicken pieces in advance to let them absorb the flavor. You can add water in batches to avoid adding too much at once. Green peppers are mainly for visual appeal, so don't overcook them; pay attention to preserving their color. If you like sweet potato noodles, you can add some extra water when you add the potatoes and put the noodles in. If they are high-quality sweet potato noodles, they taste delicious, though they might affect the presentation of the dish slightly. Hehe.
