Spicy shredded chicken

Overview

It’s the first time I’ve made it, and it feels pretty good. We really don’t want to eat hot food when it’s hot in the summer, so making a cold dish can still arouse our appetite. The most important thing about this dish is spicy. It’s more delicious if it’s spicy enough

Ingredients

Steps

  1. Thaw the chicken breasts, wash them and put them into a pot with cold water. Add cooking wine, ginger slices, green onion segments, star anise, bay leaves, and some cinnamon if there is any. Bring to a boil over high heat to skim off the foam, then cook over low heat until tender. Do not overcook, just pierce it easily with chopsticks.

  4. After the meat is cooked, put it in cold water, let it cool and tear it into shreds according to the texture. Mine is thicker, but you can make it thinner, which will make it more delicious

  5. After the oil is hot over low heat, add star anise, Sichuan peppercorns, Sichuan peppercorns, garlic slices, and chopped green onion. Be sure to use low heat. Sichuan peppercorns and Sichuan peppercorns are easy to burn. Just wait until the garlic slices change color and smell

  7. The sauce I used is sesame peanut compound sauce. I personally think the peanut butter is too greasy. Put the sesame peanut butter in a bowl, add a little warm water and stir it. Then add soy sauce, sugar and vinegar and stir until it is no longer sticky. Add minced garlic
