Lychee and bitter melon chicken soup recipe

Now we are entering the early autumn season, so making some delicious dishes at this time to supplement nutrition for your family will be very effective. Today I will introduce to you a lychee and bitter gourd chicken soup that is suitable for nourishing your body in autumn.

1. Chop the chicken into pieces and clean it. Clean the bitter gourd and take fresh lychees.

2. Add all the seasonings except rock sugar to the chicken and marinate for 30 minutes

3. Put the marinated chicken into a casserole, add 600 grams of water or broth, and boil it on the stove over medium-low heat.

4. After the water boils, cook with the lid open for 5 minutes, then turn down the heat and use a spoon or chopsticks to remove any foam from the soup.

5. Wash the ginger, flatten it with a knife, add it to the chicken soup to remove the fishy smell, then cover it and simmer on low heat for 1 hour

6. Wash the bitter melon, remove the pulp, cut into square pieces; peel the lychees; soak them in clean water with a little salt for 20 minutes. This can reduce the bitterness of the bitter melon and appropriately reduce the "heatiness" of the lychees.

7. After the chicken soup is done, add the lychees and bitter melons into the soup, cover and cook, then turn to low heat and continue to simmer for 30 minutes.

8. Finally, add rock sugar for seasoning
