How to cook mushroom stewed chicken

Chicken stewed with mushrooms can be said to be a common food, and its nutritional value is also relatively high. Whether it is mushrooms or chicken, it is good for our health. The following is the specific method and steps of stewing chicken with mushrooms.

Method 1:

Ingredients preparation

1 whole chicken, some shiitake mushrooms (), 5-6 red dates, 10 wolfberries, 2-3 slices of ginger, and a pinch of salt.

Production steps

1. The whole chicken you bought has been cleaned of its internal organs. After rinsing it, chop off the chicken's head and tail. There are two thick pieces of fat on the left and right sides of the tail, which should also be removed. Also remove the lymph on the chicken's neck. Wash your favorite mushrooms, cut them into pieces and set aside. Wash the red dates and wolfberries, soak them in warm water for a while and set aside.

2. Pour enough water into the pot, put the whole chicken in the cold water, bring to a boil over high heat, skim off the foam, add ginger slices, soaked red dates and wolfberries, and mushrooms. Are you using dried shiitake mushrooms? Then you might as well pour the water used to soak the mushrooms into the soup to make them more fragrant. In this case, you must wash the mushrooms carefully.

3. For free-range chicken and black chicken, simmer for 2 hours on low heat. For three-yellow chicken, 1 hour is enough. Sprinkle some salt before drinking.

Method 2:

Ingredients preparation

Half a chicken, mushrooms, ginger, onions, cooking wine, sugar, and salt.

Production steps

2. Blanch the chicken in water, add ginger slices and green onions, wash the mushrooms and drain.

3. Put a little oil in the pot, take out the blanched chicken, put it in the pot and stir-fry it slightly until fragrant.
