Home cooking of braised chicken

Overview

Southerners in the north like to eat rice, but cooking every day is troublesome, so they always like to eat braised chicken with rice. But you will be happier if you have fireworks at home, and eating a warm braised chicken with your family will be delicious! I bought ready-made Braised Chicken Sauce from the seasoning market. It costs 10 yuan a pound and comes in a 5-pound pot. It can be made 5 times for a family of four. It is really affordable.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Prepare ingredients. Five fresh chicken legs, cut a cross on the top with a knife to facilitate the flavor. Cut the ginger into shreds, shred the mushrooms into shreds, and prepare about 200 grams of the Braised Chicken with Old Shrimp Sauce. Here I use chicken thigh meat, the same as the braised chicken in fast food restaurants. You can also use a whole chicken cut into cubes and you should have the same flavor.

   

2. 2 Put the prepared ingredients into the pressure cooker one by one. As shown in the picture, put the chicken legs into the pot, add shredded mushrooms, shredded ginger, and braised chicken with shrimps and sauce in sequence. Finally, add 400 grams of water into the pot, cover the pot, select the chicken, and it will be ready in 15 minutes. I use an automatic pressure cooker, which takes longer. If it is an old-fashioned pressure cooker, the chicken legs can be cut into pieces and the meat will be deflated in 7 minutes by watching the watch, and the meat will be more tender.

   

3. 3 While you're waiting, prepare your desired side dishes. What I prepared here is fresh tofu and spinach, as well as the mung bean noodles that my children love to eat.

   

4. 4 When the pressure cooker is deflated, select the juice collection and flavor enhancement function, set it for 8 minutes, put the tofu and vermicelli into the pot, and add spinach at the last minute. Braised chicken with tender meat and bright soup is so easy to prepare! Served with fragrant rice, you can have authentic braised chicken at home!

   

5. 5 I always have two of Lao Xiangong’s sauces at home: braised shrimp sauce and braised chicken sauce, making cooking a simple matter.
